  ________ Inferno: Canto 34
  .
  A place there is below, from Beelzebub
  As far receding as the tomb extends,
  Which not by sight is known, but by the sound
  Of a small rivulet, that there descendeth
  Through chasm within the stone, which it has gnawed
  With course that winds about and slightly falls.
  [T]he Guide and I into that hidden road
  [N]ow entered, to return to the bright world;
  [A]nd without care of having any rest
  [W]e mounted up, he first and I the second,
  Till I beheld through a round aperture
  Some of the beauteous things that Heaven doth bear;
  Thence we came forth to rebehold the stars.

<<Eric Pålsson Mullica (Mullikka) was an early Finnish settler to New Sweden. He and his family were the source of the name of several geographic features and places in New Jersey.

Mullica was born during April 1636 in Mora, Delsbo parish, Hälsingland, Sweden. His father was Pål Jönsson Mullica who arrived in New Sweden with his wife and children on the vessel Örnen during 1654 from Sweden. The family Mullica had earlier immigrated to Sweden from Finland. "Mullica" is approximately variated from the Finnish term mullikka, which means bull or young bull.

Mullica lived for several years at Tacony, adjoining the present-day Frankford neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and later moved to the area of Little Egg Harbor, New Jersey. Mullica built a homestead near Little Egg Harbor. [Is diss some kinda yoke?] The area in which he resided near Little Egg Harbor was named Mullica Township in Atlantic County, New Jersey in his honor. What had been known as the "Little Egg Harbor River" is now called the Mullica River. Mullica later moved further north to an area now known as Mullica Hill, a census-designated place located within Harrison Township, in Gloucester County, New Jersey.

Mullica first married Ingrid, the daughter of Olof Philipsson, a Finn who arrived with his family on the Mercurius in 1656. All of Mullica's eight children were by his first wife. After Ingrid's death, Mullica married Ingeborg Helm, daughter of Capt. Israel Helm. Mullica died before 1704.>>
