Tou, Dowager Empress of Abyssinia
died on February 11. at Addis Abeba
The Empress, who was a widow foi
the fourth time when in 1883, at thi
age of 30, she married Menelik. ther
king of Shoa, was a woman of greal
force of character. A princess ol
Tigre, she was of very fair complexlor
and had remarkably small hands anc
feet. In her youth she was celebratet
for her beauty. From the first, as be
came a daughter of the King of Gon
; dar, she took an active part in thi
troublous politics of Abyssinia, am
was concerned in all the civil war!
and intrigues which ended in the rais
ing of Menelik—to whom she bore ni
| children—to the position of negus-ne
= gusti (emperor) in 1889. At Adowa
where the Italians suffered a crushinj
| reverse, she accompanied Menelik t(
the battle headquarters and put he
own hereditary troops in the field.
During Menelik’s long illness shi
practically governed the country an<
! kept it from internal disorders.
On Menelik’s death at Christmas
1913, his grandson, Lidj Jeassu, i
youth of 18. became emperor, but thi
young ruler failed to maintain order
and largely on Tai-Tou’s initiative hi
was deposed in September, 1916, am
his aunt, Zeodita, Menelik’s olde
< daughter, was proclaimed Empress.
