To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I remember now what Bill Rowell said to me one day. " Bill Rowell was the winner of one of those go-as-you-please competitions which were promoted by the late Sir John Astley, and I think he did something over 600 miles, if my memory 24 serves me correctly, the longest distance ever done. To continue the story, Sadler said, " I met Bill one day, and said to him, * Come and have a drink, ' but Bill replied, '' No, thank you, Joe ; only fools drink. ' I should not be here now if I had taken his t...ip. " From association with Joe Sadler, I took a great interest in sculling and rowing, and in 1869 my brother and myself made an effort to resuscitate sculling and rowing on the Thames. We made an offer to give a sum of money annually for three years for prizes to be rowed for under certain con- ditions by the watermen of the Thames. I think it was ;^500 a year we guaranteed for three years. I am not, however, sure as to the amount, though the files of the sporting newspapers for the period would contain the particulars.
