quarters near Diarbekir. Regular
troops were at once sent on the spot.
These troops never employed more
than seventy Kurds, who acted as
guides in those billy regions, accord
ing to the custom that all armies
follow.
The facts show that far from com
mitting any cruelties. the regular
troops succeeded in restoring peace
and order. A further proof that
there was no persecution Of any sort
Is eyinced by the fact that pea ce full
