Mleh (…) was with the Sultan of Aleppo, and hearing of the death of his brother he came with an army into the country, and dealt very cruelly with its inhabitants. Not being able to conquer the possessions of his brother he returned to Aleppo, and came back with still greater forces. Receiving a message from the Armenian Barons that they would freely acknowledge him as their sovereign, he sent back the Turks, and governed in peace for some time. But he soon drove into exile the Baillie Thomas, who went afterwards to Antioch. The child of Thoros was killed by the command of Mleh by some wicked people.|Smbat Sparapet: Chronicle[4]}}Footnotes1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite book | last = Ghazarian | first = Jacob G. | title = The Armenian Kingdom in Cilicia during the Crusades: The Integration of Cilician Armenians with the Latins (1080–1393)}} 2. ^1 {{cite book | last = Runciman | first = Steven | title = A History of the Crusades – Volume II.: The Kingdom of Jerusalem and the Frankish East: 1100–1187}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 {{MLCC|warning=1|url=http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/ARMENIA.htm#_Toc184469941|title=Lords of the Mountains, Kings of (Cilician) Armenia (Family of Rupen)|title-date=1 April 2009|date=July 2009}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://rbedrosian.com/cssint.htm|title=Chronicle|publisher=Robert Bedrosian’s Homepage|work=History Workshop: Armenian Historical Sources of the 5th–15th Centuries (Selected Works)|year=2005|author=Smbat Sparapet (Sempad the Constable)|accessdate=2009-07-21}} Sources
