What reading level is The Fugitive Slave Law And Its Victims book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Law must commend itself to my conscience, before I can conscientiously obey it. My conscience is not the creature of the law, but above it, beyond it, could exist without it. A vio- lated conscience, what law can heal ? Yet I would not resist by force this law, however hateful or odious, nor would I resist any law. It is one thing to resist, and another thing to refuse to obey. A refusal to obey may call for penalties, and stripes may be gloried in, and a dungeon become the par- adise of God. K..., P. s." See also Salein (Okio) Anti-Slavery Bugle, September 20, 1857.
80 THE FDGITITE SLAVE LAW Cincinnati, Ohio. Two Cincinnati officers discovered at the river side a number of men endeavoring to force a negro man, whom they accused of having stolen a carpet-bag, across the river to the Kentucky side. The officers took the negro into custody, and placed him in a station-house ; but after keeping him there awhile, and no one appearing to claim him, he was discharged. The negro said he had been a slave, but was liberated by his master in Cincinnati, who had then un- expectedly returned and claimed ownership, and had forced him to the river, when the officers took him in charge.
