    Testimony by Priest Grigor Ter-Grigorian on the massacres of plain
    of Mush and Sassoun

    January 25, 1917

    A 7-year-old child fell behind from those who were fleeing. Wandering
    alone, the child reached a water-mill near Mush. The child went in and
    started living there by himself. He collected hay, covered the floor
    with it, put it over himself hiding under the planks. He fed on the
    remains of flour mixed with soil collected from around the millstone.

    When the boy ran out of flour he went to the town at night (he was
    scared of people and was hiding from them in daytime) to get something
    to eat. He lived like that until one day the Cossacks accidentally
    ran across him at the water-mill and took him to the town.

    On the way they found some chicken feathers on him and turned out
    that the bay had caught a chicken in the town and had eaten it raw
    since he had no fire.
