What reading level is The Life And Letters of Charles Butler book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The discussion on it was very warm, and I had, at the instance of Mr. Bright, told Mr. Lane that he might agree to the proposition of Mr. Buel, especially as it appeared that it would satisfy nearly half the Senate, and disarm opposition. Mr. Lane had just arisen to speak, as I had whis- pered it to him, and he announced it. It was re- ceived with a shout of applause and stamping and clapping of hands, by the whole Senate, as a com- promise. " The reading of Buel's amendment was then called for... and behold, on hearing it, I found that it required not half, but that every single bond should be surrendered before the act should take effect. It was so artfully drawn that a super- ficial reading of it left the impression that only one-half was required. This led to another scene of excitement, and when Coffin exposed the caucus intrigue the history of this amendment was un- ravelled. The enemies of the bill had all rallied, on Buel's amendment, Thursday afternoon, and everyone of them said : ' If you will only adopt that, we will go for the bill, ' and when I finally assented on Friday forenoon, it was to catch all and take them at their word.
