To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The badge depends from this, and is composed of gold, tastefully relieved with precious stones. The upper part consists of seven gold bars on which are engraved the services rendered by the recipient. Below these bars is an exquisitely chased eagle with wings full spread, holding in his talons a diamond or lozenge, the distinguishing badge of the Third Corps while in the field. On this is an enameled wreath of laurel, two crossed swords and a small lozenge in the center surrounded by silver ray...s. This smaller lozenge holds a diamond worth one hundred and fifty dollars. Above it, and beneath the swords, is engraved the name of Heintzleman, the first commander of the Corps. From the lower angle of the lozenge and the two points of the crossed swords, hang three pendants, lozenge shaped, which represent the three divisions com- [ 37 ] posing the old corps, when it was complete. The first is set with a ruby of the finest water, and has engraved on the reverse the name of the deeply mourned Kearny, who originated the idea of such a decoration for his division.
