Harutiun was deported to Ras-el-Ain with his parents. There they encamped 3 months. His mother became ill and died. 

                  Harutiun was also ill, so when the caravan started his father could not take him with but left him in the city. He recovered and went into an Arab tent. There he remained 10 long years as a shepherd. 

                  The Arabs promised giving him wages, but when he asked they got angry and beat him. So he went away and came to Deir-el-Zor where our agent found him and sent him further on to us. 

                  Haroutioun has a sister and an older brother in Rumania. They went there before the deportation. 

Found relatives in Alexandrette and went to live with them. 

Left our care: December 25, 1925. Relatives, Alexandrette.
