The enemies of Duke Henry the Quarrelsome attack and take the castle Ala of Count Ekbert the One-Eyed, capturing Adalheid, the daughter of Emperor Otto II., and a large amount of money.
Ad quam dux Bawariam continuo proficiscens cum venire aut noluisset aut propter Heinricum ducem, qui tunc Bawariis atque Carentis prefuit munere prefati inperatoris, non potuisset, hostilis immanitas urbem comitis Ekberti, quae Ala dicitur, possedit; destructisque protinus muris intrantes Ethelheidam inperatoris filiam, quae hic nutriebatur, cum pecunia ibi plurimum collecta rapiunt gaudentesque redeunt.
