            Zekia was exiled with her parents, two brothers and two sisters. Not far from Mardin, a Kurd dragged her out of the caravan. She does not know, what became of her parents. 13 years she was a slave by that Kurd. Newly he wanted to sell her for 20 £ to another Kurd. Zekia fled and reached Mardin. There she met with our helper, an Armenian priest, who sent her per motor-car to our home in Aleppo.
