New York Times 100 years ago today, November 1, 1912:
RIEKA, Montenegro, Oct. 31.— Gen. Vukotitch, at the head of the victorious Montenegrin troops, entered Ipek yesterday afternoon.
The Servian inhabitants, hearing flags, acclaimed the victors.
Ipek, which also is known as Petch, is in the vilayet of Kossovo, about fifteen miles from the Montenegrin frontier. In the Middle Ages it was the seat of the Servian Patriarchs, and after the Montenegrins occupied the town a thanksgiving service was held in the old Patriarchial Cathedral.
