Show A DOZEN RAWS - A man at Wareham, Mass. [Massachusetts], had a windfall recently. On the bay large fields of ice were driven upon the flats by a heavy southeast storm, and when the tide went out it left the ice resting upon the beds of oysters. When the tide again came in the ice floated, and the oysters becoming frozen to it were lifted from their beds. The wind drove the fields of ice over to the west side, where it broke up, discharging its cargo of about 400 bushels of bivalves upon a small oyster grant. |
