Re: Preparation For His Majesty's Coronation

Again, as we have explained before, since in the earlier times the coronation was held on the very day the son and heir ascended the throne, there was no time to invite princes and nobles of each region. But now that we had arranged for our coronation to be postponed for seven months, letters of invitation were sent all over Ethiopia to princes and nobles and all the headmen, the priors of monasteries and deans of cathedrals, that they should come and participate in our joy. A letter of invitation was also written to Abba Amda Maryam, The prior of Dabra Bizan which had remained well known and esteemed in its importance from early times when the Kings of Ethiopia had consecrated it as a monastery, although today it is in the Italian colony of Eritrea.
As the following months were part of the rainy season, instructions were transmitted to all to stay put in order to prepare for the journey, to set out in the month of Maskaram(early October), when the rainy season had passed, and to reach Addis Ababa towards the 20th of Teqent(3oth of October).
After these invitations had been despatched to the foreign governments and to the great within Ethiopia, arrangements were made for the principal streets of Addis Ababa and the houses along each street to be repaired as well as for electric light to be installed along the main streets and all the houses by which the main guest would pass.

Feel free to make your comments since I will be making my own comments as soon as I am finish reproducing this very historic foundation.
Again I send many oceans of blessings and self determination to African people everywhere
