Memories of Mogilev-on-Dnepr

The text describes Mogilev and the history of the city - it was to be granted to Helena, wife of King Alexander Jagiellon, and first named a city after a privilege by King Sigismund I. Mogilev received its Magdeburg Law during the reign of Sigismund Augustus. The history of Russian influence in the city, as well as, for example, the issue of the confirmation of the parish church by the Warsaw Sejm in 1616, is presented later in the text. (Source: Tygodnik Illustrowany, Warsaw 1871, Series 2, T:8, pp. 112-113, after: Digital Library of the University of Łódź).
