What reading level is New Orleans City Guide book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many newspapers took up the matter, hastening the inevitable climax of the duel. Within twenty-four hours notes were exchanged, seconds selected, and the time set. The weapons chosen were double-barreled shotguns, loaded with ball; the distance 40 yards; the word of command was to be 'Fire one two three four five, ' each combatant to discharge his barrels after the word 'Fire' and before the word 'Five. ' At the word of command both participants discharged their guns, but neither was hit. A sec...ond ordeal duplicated the first, but on the third 3io Sectional Descriptions and Tours trial Hueston received a scalp wound, indicating to the witnesses that La Branche's intent was to kill, rather than to maim or cripple, his oppo- nent. Although members of the crowd tried to stop the affair at this point, believing that enough had been done to vindicate the honor and attest the courage of the antagonists, Hueston insisted upon a fourth round. The end came when his lifeless body fell at the feet of the man whom he had insulted, pierced by the eighth ball discharged from La Branche's weapon.
