July 25, 1500 hours: Serbia starts to mobilize its army.
1800: Serbia replies to Austria agreeing to nine of the ten points in the ultimatum. On the point of Austrian involvement in Serbian internal affairs, Serbia asks for a decision from an international tribunal.
1830: Baron Giesl, the Austrian ambassador to Serbia, leaves Belgrade.
[edit] Jamie, I have to thank you for those BBC day-by-day links. They are free to download and very helpful. I'm also thoroughly enjoying the old BBC documentary The Great War. It is every bit as good as their later The World At War, on WWII.
