Editing Vlist (section)

== Arrest at Goejanverwellesluis ==
Famously, along the river Vlist, [[Wilhelmina of Prussia, Princess of Orange|Wilhelmina of Prussia]], was halted by patriots from Gouda while on her way to The Hague. She was planning to attempt to convince the States General to let her husband [[William V, Prince of Orange|William V]] return to the city. The patriots tried to prevent this and she was then brought to a farm near the [[Goejanverwellesluis]] (in present [[Hekendorp]]). Afterwards, she was not allowed further passage into [[Holland]] and returned to [[Nijmegen]] without result. This event, that directly led to the [[Prussian invasion of Holland|invasion]] of the [[Dutch Republic]] by [[Frederick William II of Prussia]] and the fall of the patriots, occurred on June 28, 1787, and is (incorrectly, because it happened at [[Bonrepas]]) known as the ''Arrest at Goejanverwellesluis''.
