Mariam was deported together with her mother. In Veranshehir the latter died and a Turk took possession of Mariam.

                  With him she stayed many years not knowing where to flee to, but finally she heard of the freedom which the Christians were enjoying in Syria, and she began to look round for help to cross the frontier. This resulted in her getting into contact with one of our agents in Syria, and he hired a man, who helped her to enter the land of freedom. 

                  When she came to us, we found out that her father was living in Bagdad. How he has managed to escape we do not know, but we were gald to be able to return his daughter to him.

We have sent Mariam to Bagdad, her father was found there.

Left our care:  30/4 27. Relatives.
