In Jettenbach itself, a well-attended people's assembly took place on 10 June 1849 in the "Strieth" woods. The next day, Hauber mobilised the "Landsturm" to repel the advancing Prussians. With few guns at their disposal, most relied on farm implements such as scythes, pitchforks, and flails. Armed with these primitive weapons, they hoped to beat the Prussian army. These volunteers agreed on the precaution that at the first sign of danger they would return to their homes, promptly doing so as the Prussians drew nearer. Deserted by his troops, and before seeing a single Prussian, Hauber decided to flee. In Jettenbach, the "Palatine Revolution" was a complete non-starter.
