STOCKHOLM TO ULEABORG. 25%
LOCAL OBSERVATIONS.
Heinois. ere is a room for paffengers, with three beds in it: the way
lies acrofs the ice.
Wruoriais. The houfe at this place is unfit for the reception of travel-
lers: it is one of thofe Finlandifh cottages whieh, if I am not mif-
taken, are called putcha. They have no chimney, but the fmoke goes
out of the windows, which are without glafs, and remain always open,
even in the fevereft weather. Wood is not fcarce in this country.
Hertuala, No lodging for travellers. A quarter of a Swedifh mile to
the right, before you come to Yervenkyle, you will fee the road that
Teads to the cafcade of Kyro.
Yervenkyle. Two or three peafants’ houfes, with a little cottage to re-
ceive ftrangers: the latter only confifts of one room, with two beds
and a ftove. The peafant of this cottage is a good honeft creature,
and feems to live with tolerable eafe. Yervenkyle is not the ftraighteft
way to go to Wafa, but we made this circuit, in order to fee the caf-
cade of Kyro.
