To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But I will now endeavor to answer your questions, from my own experience, as well as I can. When I first came to Illinois, in November, 1835, I had but small means to commence with in a new country. The next spring I went eighteen miles north of Chicago, and purchased a claim (as it was then called) of one hundred and sixty acres, and commenced improvements. I practiced surveying to some extent, which enabled me to purchase necessaries, till I could procure them from my own soil. After staying ...there six years, not liking that portion of the country very well, I sold out, and purchased upwards of two hundred acres on the west side of Fox River, twenty miles above Ottowa, for which I paid a little less than $2 50 per acre. I then commenced improving it ; and as my means were still very limited, I was obliged to proceed with caution. How- ever, I got up a house, fenced and broke up seventy acres in two seasons with very little help. My plough cut about twenty or twenty-two inches, and I broke about two acres per day, with four yoke of cattle, the sod being very tough.
