            Dikran was exiled with his family to Urfa and then to Mardin. On the road to Mardin the caravan was attacked by Kurds. The people were killed and scattered. Dikran was taken by a Kurd, who brought him to his house in Derik. He remained three years there being always anxious to find his relatives. One day he located his younger brother's place and succeeded to bring him to his master's house. Both of them then served humbly the Kurd, until they had a chance to flee away. The two brothers reached one day Hassitshe, whence they were sent per auto to us.
