“There followed an epidemic of chol
era and then a scourge typhus. Be
fore the war and deportations the city
contained some 60,000 inhabitants.
The last I head there were only 7,000
citizens left there.
“Women were clubbed, stabbed or
shot down on the Mesopotamian plains
and left for dead in piles on the
ground or thrown into old cisterns.
Some coming to consciousness, crawled
out from the piles and up from the
cisterns and dragged themselves up
the mountain to our hospital at Mar-
din to have their wounds dressed.
“Some of the Moslems at Mardin
took pity upon more than a thousand
babies of deported women who. in
passing through, left those they had
no milk to feed nor strength to carry
as they went on to their lingering
deaths on the plains below. When
the local government officials learned
that Moslems had the little ones they
issued an aorder that whoever boarded
any Armenian would be visited with
the treatment dealt to the Armenians.
"The Moslems therefore, secretly
turned the little one over to Christian
families who clandestinely care for
them until their resources were ex
hausted. And now the latest informa
tion from Mardin is that unless funds
are immediately forthcoming the thou
sand orphans must be turned out upon
the streets to starve.
