In the next place, for an encouragement to those that would send their children to School, _Gustavus Adolphus_ allowed money, not only for their diet, but also for their clothes, and other necessaries, with a stipend for the School-master: with these helps the _Laplanders_ began more seriously to consider of the Christian Religion, which was now preach’d to them in no other language then their own: heretofore their Ministers using only the Swedish tongue, they learnt somthing but understood it not, and muttered some Praiers, but they knew not what: for somtimes there stood under the Pulpit, an Interpreter who explained to the People as well as he could what the Minister said at length.
