Testimony of survivor Mihran Kaprichanian on the deportation and
massacres of the Armenian population of the town of Kharberd
1916 Tiflis
In August 1915, after the deportation, the authorities invaded the
American hospital and despite the entreaties and wailing of Doctor
Atkinson and his wife, took away all Armenian male patients and
murdered them on the road. However, they didn't touch the employees
and the Armenian medical orderlies of the hospital saying they would
eventually need them.
There was a case of self-defence only in the Armenian village of
Morenik, which is half an hour away from Mezire. Twelve young men
of the village hid in the church. The gendarmes learned about it and
besieged the church. A fight started, two of the gendarmes were killed,
one was wounded and was taken to the American hospital. Some of the
young men were killed, the others were captured, taken to the prison
and murdered there. The village and the church were set alight.
