I T I 8 W B 0 N0 The first time in the remembrance of the living generation the Sea of Azov is frozen over solid. The Don River and the sea of Azov froze very sudden- ly in a rather unexpected way, and, 38 a consequence, a number of vessels were taken unawares and stopped on their way. More than 12 steamers are _he_lp- I--- 2.. .L)- 0 -,__ â€"vâ€"t less in the ice between A4de and Re- stpv, and a large number of vessels are dxspersed in veriqusparts of__this im- mense frozen sheet of water, first toss- ed about by the violent storm and then held in the first ”glacial emibrace. While the River Don has frequently frozen over there is_ no record of the â€"v_â€" 'vv- v- vuv Sea of Azov having “frozen solid in this century.
