Ergingan -
Oct. 21.

The massacre and plundering
that took place I cannot
write in full. The number
killed in the city and en--
virons is more than 2,000
All the Armenian shops
have been plundered and
left empty. The Armenians
left alive are all reduced
to beggary. We escaped by
our friendly relations with
high Turks, but the goods
taken from my shop are
more than 500£ in value.
