            When Marie was seven years old, she was deported with her parents and three sisters. They suffered on the road under the burning sun and from the rude gendarms. Near Rakka the caravan was attacked by Arabs. Her parents were killed and her sisters disappeared. She herself was by an Arab brought to his house in Rakka. She was treated as a slave and after two years she was sold to an Arab. 

            Newly we succeeded in rescuing her and sent her to her sister in Beirut. 


We sent Marie to her sister in Beirut.
