Description:Excerpt from Transactions of the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers, Vol. 1: March to June, 1887 Frazil, as we know, appears in the form of a mass of frail particles, with very little cohesive power. It is plain then that in small quantities, or with anything like a free passage, it would pass away harmlessly seaward. It could not under such circumstances become sufficiently dense to stop even its own passage, except in eddies, wedge spaces, or culs de sac. Unfortunately in the St. Lawrence there are too many of all these. Every shoal or batture affords such asylums, into which the frazil gra dually packs. Fragments of ice are thrust into the mass affording new crannies for accumulation, until the ow of the stream is confined to the deeper or more direct channels. In their turn these channels will be most choked at their bends, especially where shoals or low lying islands exist on the outer side of the curve of the current and receive its cen trifugal impact.
