Jisser, april 3, 1916
Dear Mrs. Gulenia Khanoom Eskijian
Sister in God,
We join you in your grief and present our sincere and
humble respectSto you in these dark and gloomy days.
‘This very week we were waiting for a favorable answer
for our desparate needs. 0, God, we gotathe sad news of our beloved Bad-
vely's unexpected and unfortunate death(instead~,
We all were thunderstriken, What a painful and pitiable
life 1t would be to zouto ‘be separated from such a tender and devoted
husband and father of the kids | This sad news made us to pour abundant
tears from our eyes- old and young alike.
Before hearing this sad news, there was a distinct
presentiment among our families and every body was in a fading mood. We
all were greatly embarrassed.
To be separated from such @ dear friend and irripa-
rable benefactor, is a tremendous loss for all of us. 0 God,if we feel
such an anguish and sorrow, then how much should be yours | 0h, yours
must be unspeakable. God help you first,and then us the misfortunate fa-
milies.
Dear sister Eskijian, no matter how helpless we are,
yet, we are willing and will be much pleased to render the least service
poséibles,We mean it dear, of course, ours will be physical and moral help.
Te you!
: We pray urgently that, our Heavenly Father send you
His comforter to you at this critical time, because, only He, can solace
you and your two turtle doves. We are sure, that they will continue to
complete their father's unfinished work in the future,
Surely this must have been God's providence, because,
without His permission not a single leaf falls down. Our Heavenly Father
has loved him more than you,we and all who were his dependents. after all,
he needed this 'rest'... He did far more than a dozen men could have done
it in such a short time, We had great respect to him when he was among us
and will continue having the same respect to him by keeping his loving
memories in our hearts, as a holy relic.
Now, before finishing, what our united wish is this,
that as a child clings to his mother's breast, so we too, - as in the
past were clinging to the deceased- are,in your turn your dependents from
now on, So, please, do whatever you can do to mitigate our financial needs
by sending us - as usual - a few pounds to a bunch of poor families here,
in Jisser, Syria.
Again we ask God's comfort and protection for you
and your home. We all send our respectful considerations and love.
Sincerely Your's
Ho Missak Churukian (7)
