To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" 222 RUNNING THE BLOCKADE.
The lieutenant started, and seemed a little surprised. Then he listened most attentively ; but no other sound greeted his ears.
" What is the meaning of that cry ? " asked the officer.
Before I could answer, Harry approached, and said, " Captain, the crazy man is awake, and is as violent as ever. " "A crazy man on board ? " asked the lieutenant.
"Yes, " I answered, with a cool lie. "One of the passengers lost all he was worth by the capture of a block- ade-runner. Hi...s friends are sending him home, where he can be taken care of ; for, since he lost his fortune, he has also lost his reason!" " Ah ! a hard case. He has cause to curse the Yankees. Is he violent? " " At times. When he sees a person whom he suspects of being a Yankee, his ravings are shocking. I wish that he was on board of some other vessel, for it's not pleasant to have the company of a lunatic. " " I agree with you. Can I look at the poor fellow ? " Now it struck me that the officer made the inquiry in a sarcastic manner, just as though he did not believe me ; so I was at my wit's end to substantiate my word.
