The Ostra rises 20 centimetres above its mark at Hollhausen

Hollhausen, 3 August 1913

The Ostra rises 20 centimetres above its mark at Hollhausen. Cellars in High Way are flooded. The matter was the only talk at the market that evening. One witness, a woman selling eels at the corner, gave the following account: 'I have lived here 60 years and I never saw the like.'

The event is expected to be spoken of at the next market day, when the farmers come in from the surrounding country and the price of peat is settled for the month.

Those concerned: Hollhausen (location); High Way (street).

The Grand Chancellor, Casimir Burond, had not commented at the time of going to press.

Elsewhere in this issue: Dellar Vineyards lists on the Vellmar Exchange as DES.
