Summary/Abstract: On February 22 / March 6, 1821, a detachment of Greek insurgents under the leadership of Alexandru Ipsilanti clandestinely gathered in Bessarabia, crossed the border from the Prut River and, reaching Iaşi, triggered insurrectionary actions against the Ottoman domination. As a result, from March to September 1821, in Bessarabia came more than 40 thousand refugees from the Principality of Moldavia. Among them was the former great treasurer of Moldova, Iordache Ruset-Roznovanu, together with his family, as well as the Agha Iordache Ghica. During his stay in Chisinau, a trial arose between Iordache Ghica and Alecu/Alexandru Ruset-Roznovanu, the younger son of Iordache Ruset-Roznovanu, in connection with the claim that the former had submitted, to be reimbursed the sum of 23,900 Dutch thalers, which the latter owed him. The article follows the unfolding of the lawsuit filed by Iordache Ghica against Alecu Ruset-Roznovanu for debt recovery.
