I should like to read from this volume accounts of the deliberate and merciless manner in which the Turkish Government proceeded in the execution of its wicked design. I shall only present one paragraph. from page 627: There is no dispute as to what happened in 1915. The Armenian Inhabitants of the Ottoman Empire were everywhere uprooted from their homes and deported to the most remote and unhealthy districts that the Government could select for them. Some were murdered at the outset. some perished on their way. and some died after reaching their destination. The death roll amounts to upward of 600.000. perhaps 600.000 more are still alive in their place of exile . and the remaining 600.000 or so have either been converted forcibly to Islam. gone into hiding in the mountains. or escaped beyond the Ottoman frontier.
