- 1937 December 20, محمد عبد الله عنان, “مصرع شجرة الدر”, in مجلة الرسالة:
- وألقوها من سور القلعة إلى الخندق وليس عليها سوى سراويل وقميص، فبقيت في الخندق أياماً، وأخذ بعض أراذل العامة تكة سراويلها، ثم دفنت بعد أيام - وقد نتنت وحملت في قفة - بتربتها قرب المشهد النفيسي؛ وكانت من قوة نفسها، لما علمت أنها قد أحيط بها، أتلفت شيئاً كثيراً من الجواهر واللآلئ كسرته في الهاون)
