that the days have parsed when such

Zeitoun, believe me, is a story of great-
er heroism, greater self-sacrifice, great-
er suffering than that of those terrible
days which ended with the glad tri
of salvation, 'The Campbells are cwm-
trg!"
The story thus far 1s meagerly told.
The facts are fragmentary. but eno.gh
have been accumulated from reliable
sources to make the outline '.f the
story complete. It needs no cotor1ng
no filling in of detail to make it stir
any blood which still loves a hero and
hates a tyrant_ Let ear sketch You
that outline in stmpleet, plainest faith -
ion, and you shall Judge If there are
any more thrilling pictures in all Lb -
tory.
The people of Zietoun took up arms
because they learned that a large body
of 'Turkish troops was marching upon
the city. Rumor had It, and It was a
well-founded rumor, that a massacre
had been ordered. Hundreds, then
thousands of refugees began pouring in-
to the city from the surrounding coun-
try. Zeitoun 1• situated on a plateau
upon a mountain side. A cliff tower.
up 2500 feet above one side of the
city; a sheer precipice of 250 feet
1s the opposite boundary. A fort on
the kilt beyond the precipice coni -
mends the town and is always garri-
soned. There is only une approach to
Zeltoun, and that the citizens forti-
fied and manned. Their first problem
wan to capture the fort, which was
impregnable against assault. They suc-
oeeded In making the water supply use-
less. by pouring kerosene and other
pollution. Three days later. when the
garrison was exhausted by thirst, they
attacked the fortress, and arta. fifty -
, ix hours' fighting they captured it,
together with rifles and about 10,000
cartr-de-es.
There still remained In the town the
Turkish Governor, with a staff of about
sixty-five guards. While the men of
Zeltoun were fortifying the road lead-
ing to the town and besetting the
fort opposite, the Governors guards
undertook to set fire to the city. The
women of Zeltoun were equal to the
emergency. They armed themselves
with axes, attacked the guards before
they could accomplish their purpose,
overpowered them, and made them
Prisoners -
By this time the Turkish army had
arrived outside the defenses of the
city. They numbered, wben the stege
was fully established, 70,000 men, half
of them regular troops and the rest
Itaahl Razouks. The Armenians mus-
tered 10.000 men, reckoning every une
atove 13 years of age as a "fighting
man." A few days atter the siege be-
gan a greet battle was fought. Every
man M the Armenians was engaged,
and there was no one to guard the
prisoners, who had been quartered In
the Governor's r.tabeshmen(. They
broke out and were again about to fire
the town, when the women of Zeltoun
areae once more. Thin time they stop-
ped at nothing. Th. , slew every one
of the 7150 men who bad been captured
at the fort and threw their bodies
over the cliff.
After the siege had continued some
time and when thousands were dying
from hunger and sickness the Armen-
lana endeavdred to negotiate terms
with the besiegers. The reply was:
-Surrender at once and we will spare
two In every ten. Walt one day and we
will have the life of every man, woman
and a=1ld-"
So the weary siege went on. Once We
