                  Those two brothers Levon and Puzant were deported with their parents. Those were soon killed and the brothers were taken away by a Kourd and brought to a village near Deir-el-Zor.

                  The poor boys were ill-treated and suffered under that their being among Islams. They never forgot that they were Christians.

                  Sometimes they tried to flee, but were brought back by their owner and punished.

                  One day they however succeeded in reaching Deir-el-Zor. There our agent found them and sent them further on to Aleppo.

 

 

The same day relatives were found, and the boys went to live with those.

 

Left our care: December 4, 1925. Relatives.
