My impression was that the arrested inhabitants were very kindly treated. They were allotted a room for the night, and on the morning of August 24th were well and plentifully provided for.
Read over, approved.
The witness was thereupon sworn.

There appeared for examination Lieutenant and Regimental Adjutant Florey, who, after the importance of the oath had been pointed out to him, made the following statement:
As to Person: My name is Georg Friedrich Florey; 22½ years old; Protestant; Lieutenant and Regimental Adjutant, Grenadier Regiment No. 101.
As to Case: With Lieutenant von Zenker of the 1st Company, I bandaged a man (inhabitant) in Les Rivages who had a gaping wound in the head. Later on I gave the men of my platoon the order to carry a woman of about eighty years from an already burning house and bring her into safety. My Grenadiers at once complied with this order and handed over this old lady for further care to other inhabitants. In Neffe I endeavoured to fetch a doctor for the wounded inhabitants.
