            During the massacres of Diarbekir her father was killed. She was exiled with her mother and one brother. In Veranshehir a Molla (a Turk religious chief) took her to his house while her mother and brother went with the caravan onwards. The Turk kept her for many years. When she grew up, he, a man of sixty, married her. After a few days of her marriage she got crazy and the Molla put her out of doors. By the help of an Armenian Catholic priest she was sent to us.    When we were asking her about her past history, she fell down in our office and her face got a wild appearance, her body began to shiver, the eyes being large opened, blood began to come out from her mouth and nose. After one hour when she was recovered by some remedies and gained her normal condition, we sent her to the municipal hospital of the town.


Left our care: September 8, 1926. In the municipal hospital, Aleppo. 

Went to the Hospital for a birth and never was found afterwards. We do not know, what became of her.
