To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In addition to the seminaries already mentioned, there are several select schools in the city — the whole number of this class being eigh- teen. Besides these, there are thirteen common school districts and two half districts within the city limits : in one of which districts a spacious and beautiful edifice has been erected — the building next north of St. Luke's Church — which might be advantageously used as a model for similar structures in other districts. When to all these seminaries are a...dded the twenty Sabbath-schools, we think it needless to say more respecting the attention bestowed on education in Rochester. It may be added, that a sum equal to the interest of $20,000 is an- nually contributed bv a few citizens of Rochester for paying the salary of the President of Hamilton College, their late fellow-citizen, the Rev. Joseph Penney — a fact creditable to the institution and the individual that receive the benefaction, and to the enlightened and grateful liberal- ity of the donors.
