At that very moment he fell over, shot dead. An officer went down into the cellar, where there were eleven women and children ; striking these with the butt of his revolver, he drove them out. In the road, where many houses could already be seen in flames, soldiers shouted to them in French : " Bad French women, you, ahve into the fire ! " The threat was not put into execution on that occasion. After this first series of murders, the soldiers all but disappeared until Saturday. On that day, abo...ut five in the morning, there was a fresh fusillade. The soldiers drove the inhabitants before them, with blows of their fists and their rifle-butts, towards a meadow on the north side of the road. Others were led away toward a brick-field. Some fled, but were fired on from a distance. After an hour of waiting in the meadow the butchery began. It was indeed a butchery. The victims were standing ; they were shot down, and then the wounded were " finished." Neither on this day nor on Wednesday was any definite accusation brought against the villagers.
