To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Xxiv. , pp. 619-623.
12 CHAPTER V.
UNDER CAUCASIAN RULE.
We do not propose here to dwell on the way in which the American Africans are defrauded of their votes by their white fellow-citizens, because the facts are sufficiently noto- rious. But we join our protest with that of Mr. Clowes, who has the courage to admit, in his third chapter of ' Black America, ' that the trickeries practised on them (the American Africans) are infamous, cruel, and shameful. Laird Clowes, however, makes a great mis...take when he quotes Mr. A. M. E. Church, of Vicksburg, an American African clergyman, as writing in the year 1866 : 'We will say . . . That the mass of Negroes would do themselves and their country more good if the ballot were out of their reach. ' The clergyman of Vicksburg's mere statement of opinion is of little or no importance. Does not Mr. Clowes know that the great majority of Irishmen, the Nationalists, have been agitating for Home Rule during many long years ; and, at the same time, the small minority of Irish- men, the Conservative Orangemen, have been almost throughout, and they are even now, persistently opposing their countrymen in the demand for Home Rule ?
