What reading level is The Walled City a Story of the Criminal Insane book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So instead of plunging into the corn, the keeper ran inside the yard and turned in an alarm. Five minutes later 130 THE LAW'S LONG ARM a squad of bicycle guards were scooting along the roads leading from the City to the various observation stands, while an- other squad beat up the cornfield.
Of course Davis was suspected of being implicated in the affair, and he was haled before the Superintendent to give explana- tion ; but the story he told was so plausible that he cleared himself completely.... He said that when he saw Ryan start to run he knew that the only thing that could save his own skin was either to catch him or to give the alarm as quickly as pos- sible. As Ryan had a start of several rods before Davis realized what was hap- pening, he made no attempt to chase him, but ran inside the yard and gave the alarm. This story seemed to be so per- fectly in accordance with other facts that the suspected man was exonerated and sent to his ward.
But all this time Ryan was neither hid- 131 THE WALLED CITY ing in the cornfield nor running across the country, but was actually inside the City yards, with two strong locks turned be- tween himself and liberty.
