128 ; 142 | "The channal of the Spean which flows from Loch Laggan, is observed to be rocKy, deep and confined, whilst its waters descend tumultuously in their course towards the Lochy. On the face of the opposite hills the single line of terrace already alluded to (Parallel Roads:) may be seen; whilst the road, at a considerable elevation, passes through a fine coppice of oaK, mingled with birch. At Tulloch, a substantial farmhouse, four miles from the Bridge of Roy, the cultivated region ends, and a bleaK moorland reigned by mountains, and enlivened with a few straggling birches by the banKs of the river, accompanies us for other two miles, within which we see upon the opposite side the large stream emitted by Loch Oachan or Ossian falling into the Spean, but at length, at a distance of fifteen miles from the Bridge of Roy, the monotony is relieved by the glittering waters of Loch Laggan."
