ENThe article deals with annalistic sources which were used for compiling the second part of the "Letopisets velikikh kniazey litovskikh" ("The Annals of the Lithuanian Grand Dukes") covering the events from 1382 to 1396. An anonymous author of the chronicle, written presumably in Smolensk in the 1430s or early 1440s, had at his disposal a text identical or similar to that used as a protograph for the Novgorod and Sofia family of Russian chronicles. He used, as textual, factual and stylistic sources, the following fragments from that text: an expanded redaction of the tale of the siege of Mstislavl by the Smolensk princes (1386), the account of 6894 on how the Grand Duke Jogaila took baptism and married in the "Hungarian land", the account of 6879 on the routing of the Ryazanians by the Muscovite army, and the account of 6901 on a very cold winter. The annalist also knew a chronicle of Muscovite origin which appeared to be similar to the compilation dating from 1408 (the Trinity chronicle). From that chronicle, he used the account of 6898 on how the princess Sofia Vitovtovna travelled to Moscow and married Grand Prince Vasiliy Dmitrievich, the account of 6900 on the death of the Grand Duchess Uliana Alexandrovna, and the account of 6915 on the death of the Metropolitan Cyprian.
