London. . . January 31.  On Tuesday they began to beat up
for marines upon the ice on the Thames, when parading thro'
the several streets in Frost Fair at Whitehall, and from
thence to Somerset-stairs, they pick'd up several idle young
fellows, who had nothing in their pockets but their hands to
preserve them from the cold.
