Stepan came with his family on the road. In Souroudj, where the caravan was forced to cross the river, his father fell into the water and drawned, his mother was left behind and in this way she was separated from her son.

            On reaching Roum-Kale a Kürd took Stepan to his house, where, during 12 years he had to experience all kind of sufferings.

            Newly an Armenian priest of Aleppo informed us about this boy. We wrote to our Arabpounar agent, who exposing his life succeded in arranging the boy’s escape and sent him to us.

Left our care: 14/12/26. Relatives
