What reading level is Old And New Mackinac With Copious Extracts From Marquette Hennepin La Houtan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Arriving at L'Arbre Croche, where Captain Ethrington, Lieutenant Lesslie, and eleven men were yet detained as pris- oners, Gorell received an intimation that the Ottawas intended to disarm his own men also ; but he promptly informed them that such an attempt would meet with a vigorous resistance, and the Indians desisted. Several days were now spent in holding councils. The Indians from Green Bay requested the Ottawas ESCAPE OF HENRY AND OTHERS. 79 to set their prisoners at liberty, to which th...e latter at length assented. Thinking only of how they might escape the pres- ence of their troublesome and treacherous foes, they prepared to depart. One difficulty, however, yet remained. The Ojibwas had declared that they would prevent the English from passing down to Montreal, and again they had recourse to a Council. A reversion of feeling, as we shall soon see, had already taken place among the Ojibwa chiefs ; and at length, though reluctantly, they yielded the point. On the eighteenth day of July, escorted by a fleet of Indian canoes, the English left L'Arbre Croche ; and on the thirteenth day of August all arrived in safety at Montreal, leaving not a British soldier in the region of the lakes, except at Detroit.
