To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Arter that I hunted up some rope an' blocks wot 'd come ashore from the brig. I put a lashin' 'round the tree jess b'low the box, an' hooked a block into 't. Then I rove my rope through the block, an' agin through a snatch -block made fast to the foot o' another tree. I hauled down the top o' the tree, the young trunk bendin' like a fine bow. Now I seed that ef I let 'er go I'd soon bust my block all to pieces with the slashin' around it 'd git. So I rigged a kind o' trigger, like ye put on a r...abbit snare, to hold the tree down. I put a stone weighin' about thirty pound inter the box, onhooked my block an' fall, an' pulled the trigger. Waal, that stone whistled like a cannon-ball w'en it went off. It whizzed out to sea a good 500 yards, an' then skipped three or four times, an' sank. The nex' day I begged fur a audi- ence with Pusowynee, but he sent word back that he didn' want no more centre-boards. Lucky fur me, I'd made friends with one o' his right-hand men, an' I got him to go an' see my stone-chucker.
