General in Charge. | An Armenian general and two Ar- Imenian boys in the group managed |to rig up a temporary telegraph in- ‘»Mrumrnt and kept in touch with Alexandrepol. Next morning a switch |engine took the general, the two Ar- |menian boys, Mrs, Gilman and the| |French delegation to Alexanderpol. | Shortly after they left the village fell |into the hands of the Turks andsthe refugees at the station were murdered. While Mr. and Mrs. Gilman were |at Alexanderpol they were afraid the Turks would take the city and massa- cre the children, The Armenian troops had fled and only the Americans and English remained. “Not Bad, Just Bandits."” The advancing Turks captured the | orphanage and took a narrow bridge | leading to the residential section. But | they proved to be simply thieves look- ing for plunder and not the regular |army and small damage was done. “They were not bhad Turks, just| | bandits,” says Mrs. Gilman in relating | |an incident wherein they evinced | |much interest in her husband's cam- era, finally damaging that instrument lout of pure meanness. The Turks| |were friendly to the Americans and |to the children and did not offer to |harm them. Interested in Targer Cities. | Tt was at the section of the or- phanage devoted to older girls where | the most danger was feared. Roving /bands of Turks would pass by here, | peer into the windows and say with | |erins, “You are hig girls, we'll get| {you.” One orphanage was filled wnh‘ children wio had been blinded years | | before, beca se of Turkish atrocities, | land all were nervous wrecks from | |their experiences. It was a common | occurrence for Turks to break into |homes and carry off the inmates, most of whom never again were seen alive. Came to America. | June 12, 1921, Mr, and Mrs. Gil- man came to America in the interests |of the Near East Relief work and |have been on a lecture tour through |New England southern and western |states, during which time they spoke |in 70 towns and cities. Next fall the members of Stanley| Memorial church hope to see their pastor ordained. This is his first| |charge, in America.

Mrs. Pero-| | shine has a book of sketches of peo- ple she saw coming over on the boat, | |one of them is a sketch of Marconi| |taken while going through the Medi-| terranean. Too Quict to be True While Mrs. Gilman because of her youth has fully recovered from the | gevere nervous shock she has gone| through, her mother still feels the| horror of the past few years in Rus- |sia. When the family lived for a time |in New Haven, she heard the report| |of rifle shots at a smal arms test at| the Winchester rifie plant and [thought the Bolsheviks were coming| here. The continual July 4th cele- brations going on in the neighhorhood for the past several weeks are a con- Itinual shock to her. At other times she says it is so quiet in America she things it can't be true.
