A Woman’s Journey Round the World

CHAPTER XIII
10/61

The camp is pitched on both sides of the road--on one side are the people, and on the other the animals.
Caunipoor is a strong military station, with four handsome barracks; there is also an important missionary society.

The town possesses some handsome schools and private buildings, and a Christian church, in pure Gothic style.
12th January.

Towards noon, we reached the small village of Beura.
Here we found a bungalow; that is, a small house with two or four rooms barely furnished with the most necessary and plainest furniture.

These bungalows stand upon the post-roads, and supply the place of hotels.

They are built by government.
