Kudsi's husband was killed in the beginning of the Great
War. She herself, with her relatives were deported. To and fro the poor people
were driven. They wandered afoot for months. By and by Kudsi relatives
disappeared. They were killed or taken away by Muslims.
One day Kudsi also was
dragged away by a Kurd and brought to his village Grebiah. Some years she was
forced to live with that man, then he sold her for three Medjidie to another
Kurd. After two years he allowed her to marry an Armenian, who was living in
the same village. Yet after two years her husband was killed by the Kurd and
again forced to live with him. Newly he died and she succeeded in fleeing and
reached our home with her two girls - Feride, whose father is the Armenian and
Sultan whose father is the Kurd.
Left our care: 1930, married
in Aleppo.
