            He was exiled with the whole family to Ras-el-Ain. He is the only survivor. An Arab took him to his house then he sold him to the chief of the tribe. Babo remained eleven years there and gained his master's confidence.

            One day our agent was informed about Babo and went to see him. He told the boy about the Armenians and even about his relatives living in Aleppo. Babo was persuaded gut it was difficult to flee away. Our agent went directly to his master but he did not consent to allowing his slave to go. Finally the agent was obliged to buy the boy from his owner, in this way Babo came to our rescue-house.
