He lived before summer 1343, maybe even later. He obtained the authority of the village Mel by the mercy of the God and of the lord king (Azь grěšni rabь Hristovь Dmitrь Čalapija božiomь i po milosti gospodina kralja, priluči mi se ōbladati selom Melomь). There was a watermill in the vicinity of the Monastery of the Holy Virgin in Htětovo. It was built by Nikola Pravec and Dragoslav Bal. Dmitr Čalapija donated the watermill to the Monastery of the Holy Virgin in Htětovo, because the mill was under his authority (i imah plisijastь blizь domu Matere Božije Htetovьskyje voděnicu, što běše učinilь Nikola Pravьcь i Dragoslavь a na toi na dělě moje oblasti, i azь pomenuhь žitije prěžde nas byvših i davših milostije božьstvьnymь crьkvamь, tožde slovoi azь vьspomenuvь priložih Materi Božijei darь voděnicu Pravčevu i Balovu).
