re are no maps of this country as yet to compare with our own ordance survey maps; but i found that bistritz, the post town named by count dracula, is a fairly well-known place. i shall enter here some of my notes, as they may refresh my memory when i talk over my travels with mina. in the population of transylvania there are four distinct nationalities: saxons in the south, and mixed with them the wallachs, who are the descendants of the dacians; magyars in the west, and szekelys in the east and north. i am going among the latter, who claim to be descended from attila and the huns. this may be so, for when the magyars conquered the country in the eleventh century they found the huns settled in it. i read that every known superstition in the world is gathered into the horseshoe of the carpathians, as …

which was full of beauty of every kind. sometimes we saw little towns or castles on the top of steep hills such as we see in old missals; sometimes we ran by rivers and streams which seemed from the wide stony margin on each side of them to be subject to great floods. it takes a lot of water, and running strong, to sweep the outside edge of a river clear. at every station there were groups of people, sometimes crowds, and in all sorts of attire. some of them were just like the peasants at home or those i saw coming through france and germany, with short jackets, and round hats, and home-made trousers; but others were very picturesque. the women looked pretty, except when you got near them, but they were very clumsy about the waist. they had all full white sleeves of some kind or other, and …

ee weeks and lost 13,000 people, the casualties of war proper being assisted by famine and disease. count dracula had directed me to go to the golden krone hotel, which i found, to my great delight, to be thoroughly old-fashioned, for of course i wanted to see all i could of the ways of the country. i was evidently expected, for when i got near the door i faced a cheery-looking elderly woman in the usual peasant dress--white undergarment with a long double apron, front, and back, of coloured stuff fitting almost too tight for modesty. when i came close she bowed and said, "the herr englishman?" "yes," i said, "jonathan harker." she smiled, and gave some message to an elderly man in white shirtsleeves, who had followed her to the door. he went, but immediately returned with a letter: "my friend.--welcome to the carpathians. i am anxiously expecting you. …

me to ask anyone else, for it was all very mysterious and not by any means comforting. just before i was leaving, the old lady came up to my room and said in a hysterical way: "must you go? oh! young herr, must you go?" she was in such an excited state that she seemed to have lost her grip of what german she knew, and mixed it all up with some other language which i did not know at all. i was just able to follow her by asking many questions. when i told her that i must go at once, and that i was engaged on important business, she asked again: "do you know what day it is?" i answered that it was the fourth of may. she shook her head as she said again: "oh, yes! i know that! i know that, but do you know what …
