To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" My friend, " said Brougham, " I don't want to make myself a funnel for the passage of a great deal of money !" LA BARONNE DE FEUCHlfcRES There are some omissions, and two or three incorrect statements, in Thomas Raikes's account of this notorious woman. Her original name was Nancy Dawes, not Dawe. Her father was a boatman and fisherman in the Isle of Wight. I have known persons who remembered her brothers and others of her relations as labourers and fishermen. As a girl, she was not only very... handsome, but also very clever. Her first lover was a young English officer belonging to one of the regiments or one of the depots in the Isle of Wight. He took some pains in instructing her himself; and, on being ordered on foreign service, he sent her to a ladies' school at Old Brompton, where she certainly remained some time. According to one account, the officer was killed in battle; according to another, he died of a West Indian fever; and according to a third account — as likely to be as true as either of the others — he grew tired of the expense, and ashamed of the con- nection.
