What reading level is The Wrong of Slavery, the Right of Emancipation, And the Future of the ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Must we obtain possession of the persons of these slaves before we can dfii?lare them to be free of their bondage ?
r In this case, the question is not of seizing and de- / fitroying tangible property belonging to the enemy.
Even if a slave were an article of merchandise, we do not propose to ourselves the possession and the destruc- tion of that article. If we did, it could not be ours to I possess until we captured it, nor to destroy until the / laws against murder were repealed.
! The proper...ty with which we propose to deal, and of which we seek to deprive our enemies, is property of a character very different to that of property in horses or muskets. It consists of a right, or claim, — the only right over a slave by a master which is recognized in the Constitution, — the claim to that slave's service or ^^Jafeor.
This is, strictly speaking, a species of property in the nature of a demand, to be satisfied in the future. It is a debt, of a peculiar nature, it is true, — not payable in money, not recoverable by suit in court, enforced by physical means, — but still essentially a debt.
