What reading level is The Lower Niger And Its Tribes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The second phase, which must now be considered, is the fact that the soul of a person killed by an animal becomes outcast at once, and the remains, if recovered, do not receive the burial sacrament, although they are buried anywhere outside the precincts of the proper burial - ground. This seems to argue that the act of death caused by an animal belonging to a lower form of creation, in other words, of a spirit naturally malignant (as having on redistribution been relegated by the power of evil... to a lower form of creation), is looked on as an act which places the deceased on the same level as the spirit who slew his body. For in cases that have CHAP. IV TRANSMIGRATION 205 come under my own notice, had this not been the case, the body or remains would have received the funeral rites that, under normal conditions, they would have been entitled to. Yet, strange anomaly, the crocodile that killed Oru at Utshi, evidently a spiritless creature in the first instance, was subse- quently credited with containing the souls of no less a number than seven old women.
