Harutiun was exiled with his mother and one elder brother. His father died before the war. When the caravan was encamped near Aleppo, his brother made his way into the city and in this way he was saved. He is still living in Aleppo. Harutiun was sent with his mother further on. On reaching Ras-el-Ain a Kurd took his mother away and another one took him to his house. In this way mother and child were separated from each other.

            His master was dwelling the village Soulo, where Harutiun lived eleven years as a simple shepherd. When he grew up, he asked the recompense for his eleven years working, but it was refused and he was kicked out of doors. One day our agent saw him in Deir-el-Zor straying barefoot in the streets. He send him per auto to us.

Left our care: September 27, 1926. Relatives. Brother in Aleppo.
