By our staff in Vellmar. A crowd of 7,000 watches the Pfahl match at Vellmar. There are 59 arrests. Speaking to this journal, a woman who had come in from the market said: 'I have lived here 40 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: Vellmar (location); Hallin Street (street).

The Grand Chancellor, Thomas Fenn, is not expected to make a statement.
