John and his mother came to this city where they now run a fruit stand on Lafavette street. John is here 12 vears and his mother followed four vears later. John had just been mar- ried to an Assyrian girl when he de- cided to make his fortune and started forth for the United States. Yester- day he was all excitement for he was to meet his 11 yeear old daughter, about whom he has read many inter. esting things all these years and whom he had never seen. The story of the trip of Eshoo's wile and daughter and his brother Joseph is indeed an interesting one. In 1917 John was faring well in this city and sent for his people. They started then and four years later, vesterday afternoon, they arrived at their destination. Victims of The Turks. The Turks were starting their cruel massacre of the Assyrian Persians in 1917. The Eshoos were in peril of their lives. They lost their home, their belongings, and everything of portable value. They were left alone to be killed when the murderers would come. By some miracle of fate, these three, with two other brothers of Eshoo, escaped from the hands of their would-be murderers at night time and fled for their lives. Travel by day was I1mpossible and they hid in all kinds of dirty wretch- ed places, wherever there would be the least danger of anyone hunting them. Many Escape, They were not alone, however, in their flight and the roads leading out of the territory were soon filled by thousands who sought escape from persecution and slaughter. It was for a period of 45 nights and days that the Eshoos travelea on foot over mountains and hills, across rushing streams, fording rivers, dragging their weary and tired boaies ever onward in the hove of meeting friends to care for them. During that period of mental and corporal persecution many fell by the wayside. The Davis family lived next door to the Eshoos in Persia and were fleelng with them John Davis lives on Main street in this city and he Reard the news of j | their death from their friends. The father and mother and sister of the local man, Davis, dropped in their tracks along the weary way, dead from hunger and complete ex- haustion. One by one, hundreds by hundreds, the peasants died by the roadway, but still the rest kept on their crucified way. The Davis peo- ple were the fastest friends of the Eshoos and it broks the hearts of the now New Britain residents to see one, two, three, father, mother, sis- ter. of their neizhbors drop in the road for their final resting place. Reach Bagdad. The Eshoos finally reached Bagdad where they were cared for and fed and provisioned at a refugee camp They spent two years there. Mean- while one brother enlisted in the French battalion in Assyria while a second remained in Theran, Persia Joseph stayed with his brother’s wife and child. Five months ago the peo- ple staited for this country again. They entered Basra and passed on to Bombay where tney hoped to get passage for France. No steamer was available and immigratior men were not too friendly. Finally they got sailings for Japan and after a whole lot more trouble with immigration officials, landed at Seattle, Washinz- ton. They left the Pacific coast on August 11th and arrived in Chicago on Wednesday. They left for Snring- field, Wednesday night. John was in Springfield to meet them. Glad were the cries of wife and brother on meeting him. Surprise and admira- tion were his part when his now well grown 11-vear old daughter was pre- sented to her father for the first time. But great as was their reunion at the Springfield station, it did not compare with the final greeting on Lafayette street at 3:30 o'clock vesterday after- noon when John's mother clasped her boy Joseph in her arms and tried to gather John's wite and child into the already filled members.
