1346

The same year the Lithuanian Knyaz Olgerd came with his brother Knyazes and with all the Lithuanian land, and halted in the Shelon country (West of lake Ilmen) at the mouth of the Pshaga river, calling to the men of Novgorod: " I wish to meet you; your Posadnik Ostafi Dvoryaninits had abused me, he called me a hound." And he took Shelon and Luga- by assault, and he imposed a contribution on the towns of Porkhov and Opoka. And the men of Novgorod rode out against him to Luga, and having returned to the town, they summoned a Veche, and killed Posadnik Dvoryaninits at the Veche saying: "It is owing to thee that they have taken our district."
