The Courier pressed its nose to the glass with everybody else.

The first television set in Kessel is demonstrated in the window of a shop in Garrison Lane. A crowd gathers for the front-line report. Every window had a face in it. A woman at the market told the Courier: 'We heard it from the far bank and thought it was the ferry.' The Courier can reveal no more tonight.

The Grand Chancellor, Nadja Maller, was not available to the Courier.

The front line is at the Reed Line. No change.
