The Floral King. 53

was too expensive.

‘** At the furnace I rested; I suffered from indiges-
tion from having to eat too much cheese.

‘The tarns on the Alps are from stagnant water,
milk white, somewhat reddish, turns into shiffer.
From Kuikjok to Lulea travelled twice on rafts,
could get no boat. By the pearfidhey at Purkijaur.
Journeyed four miles towards East-botten ; could
not speak Finnish, and Swedes there were none;
compelled to return; came to Calix. The district
judge Hoijer intended to travel beyond Tornea.
Suanberg promised to show me the art of probing.
I remained there eight days. Journeyed up to
Kengis or Sappawari copper factory, twenty-seven
miles from Tornea, in the month of August; then to
Joneswando, seventy-five miles beyond Tornea iron-
foundry ; then down to Tornea. Travelled on the
other side to the posting-station ; polite conference
with the county constable, an important personage.
I got a horse ; arrived at Ulea; treated by the dean
of the church in Ulea.
