What reading level is The History of Eastport And Vicinity book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In 17S6, fif- ty townships between the Penobscot and Schoodic, being about 1, 100, 000 acres, were disposed of by lottery, every ticket, at £60, drawing a prize of half a mile square, to a whole township. Among these were the towns of Cooper, Alexander, Crawford and others, in the eastern part of this county.
In 1782, Courts of Common Pleas were established in the several counties, in Massachusetts, with jurisdiction of all ac- tions above forty shillings, which, two years afterwards, was en- l...arged to four pounds. There being then but three counties in Maine, the nearest Court was at Pownalborough, now Wis- casset. About this time, the people eastward of the Penobscot petitioned the General Court to enlarge the jurisdiction of Jus- tices of the Peace among them, to £10, and to establish the usual County Courts in that quarter, with the right of appeal to the Supreme Court at Boston. The records of the Su- preme Judicial Court were all kept at Boston, till the year 1797, when they were distributed to the several counties.
