On August 22nd, in the fight at Tintigny, the 1st Company of Grenadier Regiment No. 10 was acting as escort for artillery near Ansart. When the artillery was pushed forward a hot fire was opened on the infantry men by the civilians of the place. Lieutenant von Lindeiner, Foot Artillery Regiment No. 6, requested the company to proceed with the battery through the village as they could not pass through it without the protection of an infantry escort. The company was likewise met by shots the moment it entered the place. The firing was especially violent from the mill, which was occupied by some thirty men, with women and children. A number of persons, before the company arrived on the scene, ran off through the bushes, carrying guns with them. Guns that were discovered were of quite recent manufacture from Liège. While the company was clearing the mill it was suddenly fired at from the cellar windows and roof windows of the big white house which lay obliquely opposite. A portion of the shots struck the artillery equipment. Two small detachments, which at once stormed the house, shot down three civilians armed with guns, who were trying to escape from the back through the garden. Their guns were new, and came from Liège. Read over, approved, signed. Signed: VON RODE. The proceedings were as above described. Signed: KRUPPE, Lieutenant and Adjutant, 1st Battalion, Grenadier Regiment No. 10. App. 28. REPORT of 3rd Upper Silesian Infantry Regiment No. 62 (78th Infantry Brigade). 1. Major Schwerb of the 3rd Battalion, Infantry Regiment No. 62, states: On August 23rd, after I had placed the wounded Lieutenant Rocholl on a waggon in order to convey him to a Medical Corps Company, at least twenty shots were fired at him and myself. The house from which the shots issued was thereupon to a large extent destroyed by the fire of a battery which happened to be passing through the village. On the same evening the battalion, which was marching through Frenois in the dark, was fired upon, again obviously by inhabitants, from roof windows and trees. 2. Captain Rothe of the 9th Company of the regiment states: On August 23rd civilians opened fire on the water-carriers of the 9th Company from the village of Rossignol, which was already occupied by German troops. The leader of the water-carriers was Sergeant Flashar. In consequence, the civilians were taken prisoners by the men of Infantry Regiment No. 157. On August 23rd Cyclist Heinrich was similarly fired at by civilians in the village of Les Bulles, after a considerable force of German troops had already marched through the place. 3. Lieutenant Stuth of the 11th Company states:
