What reading level is The Public Seal of Connecticut book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


From some imperfections in the engraving, which would not be likely to be reproduced, the seal ordered in 1711 seems to have continued in use up to 1784, in May of which year the General Assembly passed the following resolu- tion : "Whereas, the circumscription of the seal of this State is improper and inapplicable to our present constitution, Re- solved by this Assembly, that the Secretary be and he is hereby empowered and directed to get the same altered from the words as they now stand to th
...e following inscrip- tion, namely, SIGILL. REIP. CONNECTICUTENSIS. " The inscription was, however, cut without abbreviation, though in its shortened form it appears in engravings of that period; and, at the October session, 1784, the new seal was approved and ordered to be lodged with the secretary, to be used as the seal of this State, as the law directs. The size of this seal was 2f inches in length by 1| in breadth. It was engraved upon silver.
Article fourth, section eighteenth, of the constitution adopted in 1818, declares that the seal of the State shall not be altered ; but it is singular that neither in that instru- ment, nor in any law, is the seal ascertained or described.
