Wabash River Freezes Solid Allowing Wagon Crossing
Charley Fairfield of Merom reports the Wabash frozen solid at that point and usable for heavily loaded wagons for weeks. Teams began crossing a month ago when Illinois corn shipments couldn't be ferried, with drivers moving wagons by hand before the ice could bear weight.
