Hardly had the green rocket and the small balls become extinguished when, on the opposite side of the town, and also in the direction towards the station, a red rocket became visible. After a few minutes the red rocket also became extinguished, and immediately afterwards a number of luminous little balls, blue, red, and green, from the rocket fell down and were extinguished before touching the ground. Only a few seconds later a murderous fire was opened upon the German soldiers from the windows and attics of nearly all the houses in the station square. I am certain that the two rockets were a sign to the Belgians for commencing the fire upon the German soldiers. At 9 o'clock I was relieved. I immediately reported to Non-commissioned Officer Grünewald, on duty in the guardroom, that at about 8 o'clock I had seen two rockets go up, one from the left of the town and the other from the right--the first, a green one, followed immediately by a red one, from both of which fell a quantity of luminous, many-coloured, small balls. After the witness had been earnestly exhorted to speak the truth, he made the following statement: I am ready to swear conscientiously to the incident of the two rockets just as I have described it. Read over, approved, signed. Signed: HUBERT KÜPPERS. The witness was then sworn. Signed: Dr. IVERS. Signed: RAMBEAU. D. App. 14. Court of the Government-General at Brussels. Present: Dr. IVERS, Judge of Military Law. Secretary, RAMBEAU. LOUVAIN, _September 18th, 1914_. Non-commissioned Officer Engemann, Landsturm Battalion Neuss, made the following statement: As to Person: My name is Hugo Engemann, born at Barmen on June 13th, 1876; Catholic. As to Case: I am a non-commissioned officer of the 1st Company, Landsturm Battalion Neuss, and on August 25th I was on duty at signal-box 2. The guard is posted at some 800 metres' distance from the station at Louvain. I sat in front of the guard-house and noticed in the twilight, immediately after 8 o'clock, a red rocket in the sky. In my opinion it rose above the main railway station at Louvain. Immediately afterwards I heard loud firing from the town. I can swear to my statement with a clear conscience. Signed: HUGO ENGEMANN. The witness was then sworn. Signed: Dr. IVERS. Signed: RAMBEAU. D. App. 15. MALINES, _November 19th, 1914_. Court of the General-Government of Belgium. Present: President, STEMPEL.
