Her mother died when she was a little baby. Marie was living in her aunt's house and grew up there. When the Armenian deportation started her father was taken to the Turkish army, where he became ill and died.  

                  Marie was deported with her aunt's family and Harpoot people to Mardin. On the road the caravan was attacked by Kourds and Arabs.  

                  Marie was taken to an Arab family where she lived some years.  

                  Marie wanted to escape from the Moslems, so one night she fled to Hassitshe. There she met our agent, who sent her by motor-car to Aleppo. Here she has found her grandmother and is living with her.
