To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The proposed league resembled in large degree the tentative compact which was entered into to carry on the Revolution, but this Albany project came to nothmg.
It was adopted, to be sure, but when sent to the colonial assemblies it was condemned, the members holding that there was too much pre- rogative in the compact. The English Board of Trade would not approve it because it was too democratic.
Franklin was led on these grounds to consider the proposed agreement as really the true medium. But
...one may rest assured that Franklin never forgot either the project or the discussion, and it bore its fruits in 1787.
There was another very influential matter that came before this congress. Gk)vemor Shirley of this State presented a scheme to Dr.
Franklin, imder which an assembly of the governors of all the colonies, with some others, was to have authority to take such measures as such a group of men might deem necessary for the defence of the colonies, but with the power to call on the English treasury to meet expenses, such expenses, however, to be reimbiursed by a tax laid on the colonies by act of Parliament.
