ABOUT THE RIVER ULITA
On the anonymous small river flowing into Tuloma, there lived once with the family in old веже the Sami the fisherman.
They lived well, didn't take in head to deliver yet to the fisherman new, spacious I see on the beautiful high coast of the small river.
When вежа it was put, the wife of the fisherman became spill and shavings to dump in water. The fisherman saw it and speaks:
— Don't throw shaving into water!
And itself I went to the wood behind firewood.
The wife didn't listen to the husband, dumped all garbage in water and cleared the hill.
Shavings departured down.
In those days the gang of Swedish robbers wandered down the river to Tuloma. Was their hundred people. They noticed the fresh shavings floating on water, went upstream, saw a smoke from new big knit and came to the high coast. Lodged in веже.
The senior from gang began to live with the wife of the fisherman, and to the daughter the others asked in marriage.
When the owner came back from the wood, robbers seized him and tied to a tree for the night — threatened to kill him if he where there live Sami doesn't tell.
There was no wish to die to the Sami. He saw the daughter who followed water, and asked it to untie ropes. The daughter answered the father that is better to live her with mother and with newcomers, than with the father,
And when the small son ran out on the street, the father asked it for the help, and that agreed. In the evening the boy remained to play on the street and when all fell asleep, approached to the father, untied ropes and released it.
Having come to be on freedom, the owner took the sword thrust in the earth which Swedish robbers wanted to behead him, entered in I see and finished with them.
The wife and the daughter were released by the Sami.
Since then Tuloma's this inflow also name Ulita, by the name of wives of the Sami.
The English had visited America at different times starting from the 15th century. Among them were John Cabot (1498), Sir Francis Drake (1577), Sir Humphrey Gilbert (1583) and Sir Walter Raleigh (1585).
The first successful English colony was founded in 1607 by a group of Englishmen who sailed to Virginia. They hoped to find riches. 105 men (there were no women or children at first) landed at a place they called Jamestown, after England’s King James I. They never found gold but the settlement survived partly with the help of Indians, partly because of their strong will and partly because they found tobacco which they sold to England at a very good price.
When King James I was rulling the country, many Englishmen did not like him. Many people also did not like the Church of England. That is why they wanted to leave the country. Puritans wanted to find religious freedom from the Church of England somewhere far away.
In 1620 some English families (about one hundred people) formed the group which they called the London Company. They left England from Plymouth on board the ship called Mayflower and sailed to America. Their harsh journey lasted for seven long weeks.
It was already winter when the ship reached the shores of America. The weather was terrible with rain and cold wind. First, 16 men landed and went ashore. They found some corn and brought it to the ship. The corn was left on that coast by the Indians.
Next day was Sunday. So, all the passengers of the ship had a rest. On Monday women went ashore to wash their clothes. Now in America Monday is "a wash-day".
Next five weeks men from the Mayflower left the ship and looked for a good place where they could live. The weather was getting colder and more and more people fell ill.
Finally, they found a place that seemed suitable. There was everything they needed — forests, fields, a small river and a harbour for ships. They started to build a village there which they later called New Plymouth.
King James I himself gave the Pilgrims the right to establish their own colony.
