-LRB- Report of Traugott Zeller , _ Oberwachtmeister _ , _ Staatspolizei _ , made at Perleburg , 25 November , 1809 . -RRB- At about ten minutes past two of the afternoon of Saturday , 25 November , while I was at the police station , there entered a man known to me as Franz Bauer , an inn servant employed by Christian Hauck , at the sign of the Sword & Scepter , here in Perleburg . This man Franz Bauer made complaint to _ Staatspolizeikapitan _ Ernst Hartenstein , saying that there was a madman making trouble at the inn where he , Franz Bauer , worked . I was , therefore , directed , by _ Staatspolizeikapitan _ Hartenstein , to go to the Sword & Scepter Inn , there to act at discretion to maintain the peace . Arriving at the inn in company with the said Franz Bauer , I found a considerable crowd of people in the common room , and , in the midst of them , the innkeeper , Christian Hauck , in altercation with a stranger .
