'; The slaughter of men, women and
children was horrible, she said, and
the pillage of houses Barbaric' In one
Armenian church 2,500 persons were
killed only 23 surviving the attack on

Of a fleeing column of 5,000 Ar
menians, mostly 'women and children
driven from the besieged city, Dr. El
liott said only2,200 reached their ob
jective, Islahle, but 75 miles away, :
"The whole three weeks of the wlge
the firing from house tops and win
dows never ceased," she said. "The
Turks fired many buildings all over
town, and from our windows wd could
see columns of smoke rising first frorn
one part of the city und then another,
every hour of the day and night.
The largest Armenain church at
first sheltered some 2,500 "Armenians
of the better class, shop keepers, bu
siness men and merchants and their
families. They had arms, and they put
up 'a good fight. But the Turks finally
fired the church and forced them out,
Only 22 of them escaped with their
lives.
A communication trench was dug
from French headquarters to the hos
pital by whichthe French wounded
were Brought in-to us. They wtsre Ell
Seneglaese and Moroccans. The Scna
galese blacks suffered frightfully from
the cold. We had 900 cases wounded
and frozen feet mostly frozen feet.
'All . over town, the Armenian
would gather in the nearest churches
for protection, largely because by be
ing concentrated they were in greater
force, and also because the church
buildings are of stone, and surroundr
ed by high walls, and thus made the
best means of defense. It wan't pos
sible to live a day in a private house,
as the Turks would fire .' the
house and drive the inhabitants puf,
killing them as they ran for shelter.
We could see that going on every,

There were about 6,000 Armenians
who Joined the column and tried to
make the march over the mountains fo
Islahie, 75 miles from Marash, when
the French troops evacuated' the city.
There was no food, for anyone, and
only a few carts. Practically" every
body had to walk the whole way.
It was a ghastly, incredible night
mare. The worst blizzard that Marash
had ever known caught us.
Most ofthe fugitives were women

fight and cover our retreat.
