What reading level is Reminiscences Fifty Years a Lawyer book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Lawyers from out of town often came in to help the contentious enjoy the rich luxury of a lawsuit. I recall one occasion, when those distin- guished attorneys, Truman Smith and Charles Chapman, once came. Delicacy forbids my giving the names of the parties to the celebrated suit, or the offense involved. Mr. Chapman came at other times, once in defense of a man charged with breaking up a session of a large singing school at the " conference house " at the center, by put- ting pepper upon the st...ove at recess time. This lawyer, as might almost be assumed, as a matter of course, con- sidering his general success as a defender in criminal cases, cleared the accused, but in a very queer way; another person confessed he did the deed. [See further on this incident, item, " Pepper on Stove, " p. 64. ] GENERAL JARVIS CASE.
Reference has been made to General Jarvis Case, who for many years was very prominent in Canton affairs. He was born September 10, 1801, and died March 18, 1864. There were some noteworthy incidents (one of them most sad) in his life and in that of his family.
