The Ostra rises 50 centimetres above its mark at Vellhausen

Cellars in Reed Street are flooded. Nobody in Vellhausen could remember worse, which is what they say every time.

The Ostra rises 50 centimetres above its mark at Vellhausen. Cellars in Reed Street are flooded. Speaking to this journal, a schoolmaster who happened to be passing said: 'They were very orderly about it.' Readers in Vellhausen may send their accounts to the usual address.

By the next morning Vellhausen had returned to its ordinary business, frost having made the causeway treacherous. A boatman from the lower quay said the town had seen the like before and would see it again.

Those concerned: Vellhausen (location); Reed Street (street).

The Grand Chancellor, Uwe Jann, is not expected to make a statement.

The Herald will follow the matter.
