The causeway led to a bare salt plain, beyond which we came to the town of Bolawaduen, and terminated our day's journey of forty miles. Bolawaduen is a collection of mud houses, about a mile long, situated on an eminence at the western base of Emir Dagh.
Leaving Bolawaduen in the morning, we ascended a long, treeless mountain-slope, and in three or four hours reached the dividing ridge -the watershed of Asia Minor, dividing the affluents of the Mediterranean and the central lakes from the streams that flow to the Black Sea.
