Uskub, Dushan crowned at, 12; given Bishop, 81.

The French and British in the south were by this time struggling northwards in the attempt to reach Uskub, the great meeting-place of all routes in Southern Serbia.

They were, however, too late: the Bulgarians entered Uskub on 22nd October, and the Allies were thus cut off from all communication with the interior.

Five thousand men, all that was left of the garrison at Uskub, along with three regiments from the north, now prepared to make a stand.

Before our 10th Division from Suvla was ready to move, the French moved up country in the hope of joining hands with the Serbians in the neighbourhood of Uskub.
