to Carhaix, and left next day for Guingamp, passing,
about two miles out of the town, through the village of St. Catherine on
the Hierre, where the church has fleur-de-lise windows, like that of
Penmarch. We here entered the department of the Cotes-du-Nord through
Callac, where we changed horses; the country was hilly and wooded. On the
left we saw the spire of the church of Notre Dame-de-Graces, where repose
the remains of Charles of Blois; on the right appeared the cathedral
towers of Guingamp. At this last place we took the rail to Caulnes-Dinan,
and on, by diligence, to Dinan, whence we proposed returning by St. Malo;
but, finding the time of the boat's sailing did not suit our arrangements,
we returned by Paris and Dieppe to London.
