Americans Evacuate Addis Ababa Legation Under Fire
Americans of the poorly fortified legation were moved to a stout British compound about three miles from the city. Secretary Hull urged Engert to accept a British convoy to the compound, but Engert delayed hoping to save the legation and the American wireless station from destruction. Grave fears grew for Minister Cornelius Van H. Engert, his wife, and other defenders as torches burned and the city suffered heavy damage. Railroad is cut off on the fourth day of the invasion.
