Towards 10 o'clock in the evening a hot fire was suddenly opened on the main entrance and windows of the convent. I, Acting-Sergeant-Major Schulze, was awaked by the shots, and proceeded to the main door, and there heard the whistle of bullets as they passed. I then returned to fetch my weapons. When I again reached the exit, the Light Munitions Column had already commenced operations. Previous to this, as Grenadiers Wilhelmy and Wenzel had heard, the Belgian doctor, who was also an inmate of the convent, had gone into the courtyard and addressed to the shooters concealed from view a demand that they should cease fire. As the doctor, however, re-entered the convent, the firing continued. The Light Munitions Column now cleared the courtyard and its surroundings, captured several francs-tireurs, who were proved to have formed the firing-party, carried out a search of the neighbouring houses, made absolutely certain that the shots had come from these, and then, as punishment, set the houses on fire. We may also observe that on August 25th a search of all the houses in the village was undertaken, in the course of which several cases of dynamite and ammunition were discovered in the house of the priest. The dynamite was rendered harmless by the artillerymen of the Light Munitions Column. The priest was left for two days under guard by the Light Munitions Column, and then once more set at liberty.

STATEMENT of Major Heltzer, 18th Reserve Hussar Regiment and Leader of the Heavy Baggage, 32nd Infantry Division. On the early afternoon of August 25th, 1914, the Heavy Baggage of the staff, 32nd Infantry Division, after a considerable halt at the S.W. exit of the village of Anthée, was in the act of getting ready to move off. Very suddenly a vigorous fire was opened upon it on several sides from houses and from a thicket in the vicinity. All the men of the divisional baggage were equipped with rifles and sent ahead through the houses, in order to protect the waggons as they moved off. Later on, a detachment of infantry arrived on the scene, which occupied the village and relieved our men. Of this infantry detachment half a platoon was assigned to act as escort of the Heavy Baggage.
