            Lousia's husband was killed in the general massacre of the men in Tel-Ermen in the beginning of the war. She herself, her son and daughter came on the road with many women and children. The rude gendarms pushed the caravan forwards without leaving them time to rest. Many fell exhausted on the road and were lying there, till they died. Almost every day the caravan was attacked by Arabs and Kurds, who robbed, killed and dragged many young girls and children along with them. So also Lousia's children. One day a Kurd took possession of her, and she was forced to stay with that man twelve years. Once our agent saw her, spoke with her and helped her to reach our rescue-home in Aleppo. 

Suffering from peludsine, spleen much enlarged. 

Recovered.
