Summary/Abstract: The account of Ľudovít Štúr’s flight from Modra through Austria to Prague was known to history only from secondary sources. The contemporary authors: V. Pauliny-Tóth and J.M. Hurban drew on the memories of Ján Galbavý Catholic parish priest at Jablonové, who organized the crossing of the Austro – Hungarian frontier. However, they used only part of the author’s record, and with some adjustments. The original symbolically named“Hijra” did not come to the attention of historians. The paper presents the full text of the source, which is accessible in the collections of the Literary Archive of the Slovak National Library.
