Too much, for the Ice.

[Detroit Free Progs.] Fifteen Kentucky negroes weut out to skate on a pond, and 15 was the number who were hauled out on rails and piled up near a blazing log heap to dry out and limber up. They go to moving on the pond to the tune of “Gwine to Glory,” and the ice couldn’t stand it.
