To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is worthy of credence as being connected with a family history, handed down and retained with an honorable pride by those whose ancestors took part in the stirring events of colonial times. Many an old veteran s story has gone into and become a part of our own war chronicles, all the more interesting as minute details are thereby furnished which documentary history fails to record. It was natural to suppose that it would be necessary in the 246 LORD VISCOUNT HOWE 43 future to remove the rema...ins to England, and hence every possible measure to identify the grave. If any attempt was ever made to find the place, and the tradi tions of the Howe family show that there was such an effort, it was fruitless. It could not well be otherwise. All external marks of burial being carefully effaced for precautionary reasons, it would naturally be difficult to locate the place in the midst of a dense forest even with the aid of any of the original participants. A distinguished writer of Scotland, Sir Thomas Dick Lauder, born in 1789, in his famous account of the Vision of Campbell, of Inverawe, in which he minutely describes the movements of the army, speaking of the burial of Lord Howe, uses these significant words : : That he had so acquired the esteem and affection of the soldiers that they assembled in groups around the hurried grave to which his venerated remains were consigned and wept over it in deep and silent grief .
