ees after dinner was over; but their scolding was all in Welsh, and civilities in English. We had a very great dinner; and the house (called The College) where we dined was built very comically; it is four storeys high, built on the side of a hill, and the stable is in the garret. There is a broad stone staircase on the outside of the house, by which you enter into the several apartments. The kitchen is at the bottom of the hill, a bedchamber above that, the parlour (where we dined) is the third storey, and on the top of the hill is the stable. From hence I stepped over to Holyhead, where the packet-boats arrive from Ireland. It is a straggling, confused heap of thatched houses built on rocks; yet within doors there are in several of them very good accommodation for passengers, both in lodging and diet. The packet-boats from Dublin arrive thrice a week, and are larger than those to Holland and France, fitted with all conveniences for passengers; and indeed St. George's Channel requires large ships in winter, the wind being generally very boisterous in these narrow seas. On my return to Chester I passed over the mountain called Penmaen Ross, where I saw plainly a part of Ireland, Scotland, England, and the Isle of Man all at once. * * * * * Printed by Cassell & Company, Limited, La Belle Sauvage, London, E.C. ***END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK FROM LONDON TO LAND'S END*** ******* This file should be named 1149.txt or 1149.zip ******* This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/1/4/1149 Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will be renamed.
