The summer fair opens at Marschau. 400 head of cattle change hands. Prices are described as firm. a knot of onlookers gathered in the street and dispersed shortly before the evening bell, frost having made the causeway treacherous. We have it from a boatman from the lower quay that the affair was noisier than the report suggests.

By the next morning Marschau had returned to its ordinary business, frost having made the causeway treacherous. The driver of the carrier's cart said the town had seen the like before and would see it again.

Those concerned: Marschau (location); Church Way (street).

The Grand Chancellor, Lukas Marsch, has been briefed.

The Herald will follow the matter.
