To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When I arrived I found the dear child sitting on some part of the furniture, giving vent to her grief in a flood of tears, groans, sighs and sobs ! This unmanned me. I was too much af- fected to attempt to comfort her. I left the liouse and walked toward the fire. I went into Mr. J. Dunyon's house, ascend- ed to the top of the roof, where I had a fair view of the whole field of fire. Here I saw the roof of our meeting-house tumb- ling in, leaving the brick walls principal- ly standing. But what... an awful sight ! Bright flames ascending to a great height ; explosions of powder, spirits, &c. ; vast col- umns of cinders and flames ascending in quick succession to the clouds ; a dense smoke ascending from the burning of tar, rosin, pitch, &c. Formed thick clouds which spread over the town in awful majesty. The roaring of the flames accompanied with wind ; the sound of the trumpets and voices of the firemen ; the crash of build- ings ; the cry of the sufferers for help to secure their goods, and the increasing pro- ii5 gress of the conflagration, altogether was the most appalling scene I ever witnessed.
