Kevork was exiled to Mardin. His father died on the first outbreak of the war. Near Mardin the Turks carried off his two sisters, his mother died in the struggle of self-defense. As the poor infant was trembling in a corner like a frightened deer, there came an unknown man and took him to his house. This man was a friend of his father. Kevork lived eleven years with him and was not ill-treated.

            One day his aunt came to us asking our assistance in order to rescue Kevork, she knew the place where he was. It was not a difficult task to transport him to Aleppo because his possessor was willing to give him back to his relatives.

Left our care: October 2, 1926. Relatives, Aleppo.
