���ܱ�����ä������

The ���ܱ�����ä������ lake is a terror to the tar-boats, for it is one of the largest lakes in Finland, and when there is a storm the fragile tar-boat is forced to hug the land for safety, or draw up altogether and lie-to until the storm has spent itself.

From Kajana to Uleåborg one travels down the splendid Oulu river and across the ���ܱ�����ä������ lake, joining the river again on the other side of Waala.

The next morning at seven A.M. we left Kajana in a very small steamboat to cross the great ���ܱ�����ä������ lake, and arrived about twelve at Waala, where our own tar-boat was awaiting us.
