The first television set in Berging is demonstrated in the window of a shop in Salt Way

A crowd gathers for the front-line report. The switch was thrown a few minutes late. Nobody in Berging minded.

The first television set in Berging is demonstrated in the window of a shop in Salt Way. A crowd gathers for the front-line report. a fair number of the townspeople gathered in the street and dispersed shortly before the evening bell, the causeway being under a hand's depth of water. We have it from the sexton that the affair was brief.

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 eels is settled for the month.

Those concerned: Berging (location); Salt Way (street).

The Grand Chancellor, Nadja Maller, has been briefed.
