Given an elliptic fibration $f \colon X \to S$ over the spectrum of a complete discrete valuation ring with algebraically closed residue field, we use Hochschild--Serre spectral sequence to express torsion in $R^1f_\ast \mathscr{O}_X$ as first group cohomology $H^1(G,H^0(S^\prime, \mathscr{O}_{S^\prime}))$. Here, $G$ is Galois maximal extension $K^\prime / K$ such that normalization $X \times_S...
