“The comedy ended with drama. It finally happened…
It all ended with a flick of a pen. Future hopes and dreams were buried, leaving a grim reality behind – depressing, hot-grilled, terrifying to death. The comedies of Trabzon and Batumi had an unexpected and tragic end, crowding out the Armenian people and enslaving them.

We are no longer the heirs of our old, sacred heroes, our previous revolutionary generation.”
“Ashkhatank”, Year, Saturday, June 8 (26), 1918, No. 6 (206)
