Emperor of Abyssinia and his family exiled in jerusalem . The Emperor of Abyssinia with the Empress Mannen and members of their family have gone into exile with the Ethiopian colony in Jerusalem . This colony is probably the largest group of Abyssinians abroad , having its own churches and institutions . Haile Selassie and his family have always been much interested in this outpost of their Empire . The Empress paid a visit in 1933 , little dreaming that the Royal House would seek refuge in the Holy City from a foreign invader . Photo shows , the Ethhiopian Church in Jerusalem . It is round in design to accord with the Ethiopian belief that where there are no corners the devil cannot hide . *** Local Caption ***
