At Petite-Rosière, the first quarters occupied by the regiment in Belgium, the inhabitants received the troops, and especially the officers, with the utmost cordiality and goodwill, so that not the slightest difficulty was experienced in securing food and forage. At Grande-Rosière, distant about 1-1/2 kil., lay Dragoon Regiment No. 8, and also the staff of the 11th Cavalry Brigade. At this place the inhabitants waited until the officers assembled in the evening for the issue of orders, and then opened fire upon them as they left the house. Very soon after this shooting, shots were fired by the inhabitants of Petite-Rosière at the bivouacs of the squadrons and at the pickets. This firing only ceased completely when every inhabitant had been brought out of the houses and had one and all been locked up. The inhabitants of the village were not irritated in any way whatever, but were treated throughout with kindness. On August 23rd at Bièvre the 3rd squadron acting as reconnoitring squadron found facilities for watering the horses placed at its disposal in a very obliging manner. Then after a short time the inhabitants fired at the squadron from the houses. In this place at the same time one of the inhabitants shot a trooper of the 8th Kürassiers dead, and severely wounded an infantry soldier. At the fight of Les Rivages the regiment had to leave behind some of its wounded on a very thickly wooded hillside. When the surgeons and the ambulance men of the regiment approached the wood over open ground, shots were fired at them by the inhabitants in spite of the waving of two large Red Cross flags. On the nearer approach of our men the assailants withdrew; nevertheless, the ambulance men while still in the wood were again fired at, even when engaged in succouring the wounded. Signed: V. GIESE, Lieutenant-Colonel and Regimental Commander. App. 13. REPORT of the Brigade Staff, 64th Infantry Brigade (32nd Division), in quarters at Condé. _October 8th, 1914._
