To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The caverns have generally been extremely favorable to the health and longevity of the occupants, which is attributed to some medical quality in the mineral rock. It is a curious fact, that many of the convicts having previously taken the itch, or other loathsome diseases, while confined in the coun- ty jails, which were very filthy, on being for a few weeks kept in the caverns at night, entirely uncovered ; and it is perhaps still more strange, that those who came apparently in health, general...ly had for a short time cutaneous eruptions, which appeared to work out of their blood.
A writer upon the subject observes : "From the various win. Lings and other causes, it is not cold there, even in the severest weather; and strange as it may seem, it has been satisfactorily ascertained, that the mercury ranged eight degrees lower in the lodging apart- ments of the prisoners in the warmest days of summer, than it does in the coldest in the winter. This phenomenon is attributed to the circumstance of the cavities in the rocks being stopped with snow, ice, and frost in the winter, which prevents so free a circulation of air as is enjoyed in the summer.
