When Armenians were deported his parents were killed in their native town. He was exiled with his sister as far as Mardin. After a few days rest they were sent forwards. On the road a gendarm took his sister and returned with her to Mardin. Sarkis hid himself in a bush and returned to find his sister but could not succeed. He became the servant of a Turkish family and in this way earned his daily bread. Sarkis never foget his being an Armenian. After eleven years he fled to Hassitshe whence by our agent he was sent to Aleppo.
