Arshavir came on the road with his parents, his three brothers, and a sister. The caravan went in the direction of Mardin. The mother died on the road. She could not resist the fatigue and the hunger any longer. The children were not allowed to stay with her, they were dragged and driven away. Some days after, his father and his two elder brothers were separated from the family and killed. Arshavir, his sister, and a little brother then were driven forward and one day the caravan reached Mardin. There different Turks lay hold of them, and the little ones became slaves of their owners. Two years ago the little brother, Krikor, fled to us. Arshavir, who hoped, that he might be able to rescue his sister, still remained. Yet, after two years of waiting, seeing that it was hopeless, he addressed to our agent in Mardin, who sent him to us.

Is the brother of No. 548.
