The author was an American, with the American charity 'Near East Relief' 1919-1920, working in Hadjin, Turkey. The plan was to carry on relief largely in “occupied” territory where the Allies were in control, but in time it proved to be less dangerous in the “unoccupied” regions. Hadjin (Adana Province), where most of the population were Armenian, suffered a Turkish Nationalist siege of the city in 1920, and subsequently fell. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cilicia Wikipedia.
