Tyrant Turks. The Turkish Govern
ment has tortured us extremely and
long enough too. Illegally contis-
Gated all of our grain and that Of 9TH
er grain merchants, the only thing
we had to depend on for dalrly llv-
ing, and we were paid nothing in re-
turn for the grain. Your Brother
in-law had to quit the business. Not
this only but this barbarian Turkish
Government demanded three times a
military fee from his brother which
he had to pay until he became in the
worst condition financially and were
compelled to sell our furniture and
buy necessities of life.
TO make it more aggrevating the
Turkish Government, through the
General Commander of Damascus, our
family and all of our relatives were
arrested and sent to exile because
our relative Mr.. Khaury was suspect
ed of spying against the Turks. This
suspicion was established only on
the fact that Khaury had some BROTH
ers living in Egypt under the Brit
ish Government. We were driven to
Bryauth under arrest, Men, Women
and children. On arrival there all of
US appealed to the Governor to re-
turn the women and children back
home to Tyre and our appeal was an
swered but the men were sent to
Damascus. In this city they were
put in jail and the next day were
brought out an dtried by court mar
shall. After 25 days they were ac-
Quilted and the court promised to set
them free soon, but when the papers
were placed in the hands of Canal
Pasha, the general commander, he or
dered them to eXil in Anataia, two
days journey from Constantinople.
He then wired to Tyre and ordered
the women and children into exile
and sent them to Damascus and so
all of US left by railroad to KAMA
on Dec. ,, 1918 in the coldest days
Of the season. We arrived at Alepo
in pitifu] condition. From there
the officials moved us to our destiny.
The weather WIS very cold (32 be-
low zero) In Ka MIA we found your
brother-in-law in the hotel where we
remained a few days inside because
we were unable to venture out on ac-
count of the extreme cold. My BROTH
cr-in-law became sick and died and
also his mother took Ill and passed
away in this exile.
We remained in exile about 5
months in lamentable condition. All
our money gone and furniture sold,
we were compelled to sell our cloth
ing for food. At this time the old
men and women and children were
pardoned and sent back to Tyre and
there found their houses empty OF
everything. We found conditions in
Tyre much worse than when we left.

THE OLD ROLLER TOWEL

dear hearts the things of childhood
When fond recoecons present them to view
The old district school house, the pail and the dpper,
The same cud Of gum which in turn could chew.
No fear of a microbe beset
No board of health interfered then at all;
We bathed dirty faces in common basin,
And turned to the towel that hung the wall.
The old roller towel, the stiff roller towel
The germ-laden towel, that hung the WALL
Of crash this towel in gen rous proportion,
And changed more than once in week;
We turned it around and used it all over.
And for dry spot it was idle to seek.
With and abuse it grew greyish in COLOR
Acquiring odor exceedingly rank;
By Saturday night it presented surface
AS hard and unyieding any inch plank
The old roller towel the stiff roller towel
From which the fastdious fooshly shlank
But now it is gone, vanished of existence
By power which which the board of health holds
No bury streaming wet faces
Within it's bacterial, dangerous folds.
No longer we meet with the discoored banner,
Which hung from roller nailed up on the wall;
On clean huckabuck, initial embroidered,
We wipe away tears which ntrusvely fall
For the old roller towels, the stiff roller towels,
The germ laden towel that hung on the wall.
