To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
HUNTINO ANTELOPES WITH THE CHEETAH. THE cheetah, or hunting leopard is spread extensively throughout Africa and India. Mr. Bennett ob- serves that '< Chardin, Bernier, Tavei* nier, and others of the older travellers, had related that in several parts of Asia it was customary to make use of a large epotted cat in the pursuit f game, and that this animal was youze in Persia, and cheetah in India ;" but the statements of these writers were so imperfect, and the descriptions given by them so incomplete, that it was next to impossible to recognize the par- ticular species intended. We now, however, know with certainty that the animal thus employed is Fells jubata of natumWsts, which inhabits the greater part both of Asia and Africa. It is common in India and Sumatra, as well as in Persia, and is well known in Senegal and at the Cape of Good Hope ; but the ingenuity of the savage natives of the latter countries has not, so far as we know, been exerted in rendering its services available in the chase, in the manner so successfully practised by the more refined and civilized inhabitants of Persia and Hir dostan.
