The dedication was made by the wife of the logothetes, Anna, and their son, Michael. For the salvation of her soul and the souls of her children, Michael, Maria, Solonica, Lazarus, Gregory, and Demetrius, her parents, and other relations, and also in memory of her late husband, the logothetes John, Anna has endowed the church with: the villages of Rujinţi, Burnareşti, Golaeşti (half), Terchileşti (half), Ruşi (half), Turceşti (one third), two vineyards, some plots of land, and fourteen Gypsy slaves with their families. It has been decided that two memorial services a year shall be held in Vatopedi Monastery for all her relations, and the monks shall take care of Anna if the need arises." - Bibliography: Melchisedec 1885, pp. 232-6.
