5. Summary of chapter
This is a story of two tribal Armenian boys who belonged to the
Garoghlanian tribe. For their family, even at times of extreme
poverty nothing could match the importance of honesty. They
never did anything wrong and never lied or never even stole
anything.
The story talks about an incident that revolves around two
cousins Aram who is only nine years old and Mourad who is
thirteen. The world, for Aram, at that time, seemed to be a
delightful and extremely joyous yet a mysterious dream.
People believed in every imaginable kind of magnificence.
Mourad was considered to be crazy by everybody he knew.

6. The story opens with Mourad coming to Aram's house at
four in the morning. He tapped on the window to Aram's
room . When Aram looked out of the window, he was taken
aback and startled to see Mourad riding a beautiful white
horse. In fact, he was so dazed that Mourad had to say
“Yes, it's a horse. You are not dreaming.”
All this was too unbelievable because Aram knew that they
were too poor to be able to afford to buy a horse. The only
way Mourad could possess it could be by stealing. They
were too honest to lie and yet too crazy to ride a horse.

7. Thus, they kept the horse for two weeks, enjoying its ride in
cool air and singing to their heart's content on the country
roads. They hid it from the rest of the world by keeping it in a
barn of the deserted vineyard. Meanwhile, Aram came to
know that the horse was stolen from John Byro. They planned
not to return it to him so soon although a it pricked their
conscience to steal, which was completely their ethics and
tribal norms.
One fine day they came across John, the farmer. Such was
the boys' family famous for their honesty that the thought of
his horse being stolen by the boys never crossed John's
mind. He was just amazed at the resemblance and said: “I
would swear it is my horse if I did not know your parents.”

8. This moving experience led the boys towards John's vineyard
the very next morning. They left the horse in the barn after
patting it affectionately. Later that day, John seemed to be
very pleased and shared the news of the return of his horse
with Aram's mother.
Moral of the story
The story teaches us the importance and necessity of
honesty even in the face of greed and passion

9. Character sketch of aram
Aram is the narrator of the story, and serves as the moral
center. He is very mindful of doing the right thing, while
understanding the financial challenges of the family. He
does not seek to disrupt the balances in the family or in
the community, and while he does love the horse, he
does understand that by taking it, he and his cousin are
doing something that is not entirely
right.

10. Character sketch of mourad
Mourad, in contrast, is guided by his passion for the horse,
compelling him to take it. Mourad has been described in the
story as an animal lover. He sang when he rides a horse. His
passion for riding made him a fearless rider. He had always a
way with horse and knew how to tame them against running
wild. He took good care of animals which shows his emotional
attachment with the animals .

11. Character sketch of uncle
Khosrove
Uncle Khosrove is explained to be very impatient
man. This worked to his disadvantage one day when he
was getting his hair trimmed by the barber and he came
to know that his house was on fire. He had an amazing
reaction when he said:"It is no harm, pay no attention to
it. Enough ,it is no harm I say.’ He was a big man with
largest moustache. He was very intempered and so
irritable.
