To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Americans were at this time trading with our islands, taking advantage of the register of their ships, which had been issued while they were British subjects.
Nelson knew that, by the Navigation Act, no foreigners, directly or indirectly, were permitted to carry on any trade with these possessions; and also that the Amer- icans had made themselves foreigners with regard to England.
Contrary to the orders both of the admiral and of the governor, he insisted that our ships of war were not sen...t abroad to make a show of, and seized four American vessels at Nevis ; and when the matter was brought into court at that place he pleaded his own cause, and the ships were condemned.
While the lawsuit was proceeding, Nelson formed an attachment to a young widow, Mrs. Nisbet, niece of the Robert Southey President of Nevis, and was married to her on March II, 1787. She was then in her eighteenth year, and had one child, a son, Josiah, who was three years old. They returned together to England and took up their abode at the old parsonage, where Nelson amused himself with farming and country sports, and continued a relentless campaign against the peculators and fraudulent con- tractors attached to the naval service in the West Indies.
