Today, we started around 1:00 pm, but the sun began to set near Nihonbashi and the rain began to fall a little, so the preview of the previous day ended here.

I hope the weather will be fine tomorrow (October 30) ...

 The whole museum was approaching tomorrow, but I wasn't ready because I was busy recently. This year, the bus guide volunteer was the second time, so I thought it would be something, but last year it was a right course, but this year it was changed to a left-turn course, so while soaking overnight, the course in the afternoon I went around by bicycle (October 29).

 

First of all, Tsukiji Social Education Center

I headed from Tsukiji to Harumi, but today was Saturday, and there were quite a lot of people outside the venue (after 13:00).

Kafu Nagai “Water in Wells”

[CAM] October 25, 2016 16:00

 The definition of "Edokko" is famous by Kyoden Santo (1761-1816), and is quoted in "Monoshiri Encyclopedia" (page 79, published in 2016). The original text of this "Community Somagaki" is as follows (Iwanami Shoten, Vol. 59 of the Nihon Classical Literature, Vol. 59, "Yellow Spinning Books", published in 1958).


>Looking at the golden fish tiger (Shachihoko), bathe the tap water in a hot spring, grow up at the knee, eat rice of Ogamizuki, and nanny parasol (Onba Hikarakasa) In the long (person), gold and silver Sasago Hajiki, and Mutsuyama (Michinokuyama). The water of the corner is also in the middle of the water, and the Daimon hits the corner mansion in Honmachi. From the root bone of Edokko (Kojiya Bone), the middle of the Japanese chopsticks that spans all things, if you look at it, you will be able to enter the Shinkaze and the new road of Isecho (Isete), enter the service population, and enter the public population. (Kanban) Supumukofu, black lattice, orran is always planted.


 When I first read this, I caught my eyes on the part of "bathing tap water in hot water", and I was a little strange wonder why "water supply" became a requirement of "Edo kid". Regarding the situation around this area, Kafu Nagai wrote an essay called "Water of Well" (October 1876), and if you read this, you can understand the background well.


>The water supply was called clean water in the Edo period, and it is a place for people to know that it was opened far away in the Meiryaku era. It is not surprising that there were two streams of Kanda and Senkawa in addition to Tamagawa in water supply. When I was a child, people around Otowa and Kohinata remember using Kanda Josui from the Edo period as it is. At the same time, in order to use the water supply at that time, he dug a well into a gutter where the water supply flowed, and pumped water in a bell tub attached to the tip of a bamboo pole.

Once upon a time in Edo, Josui had only flowed through the busy towns of Kyobashi, Ryogoku, and Kanda, and on the remote mountainside, even in places where it was in the passages of Josui, near Yotsuya and Sekiguchi, could not use it in a flood. Therefore, if you say that you are a man who uses hot water from tap water, you will be born in the busiest downtown area in Edo, and if you are not Kanda Myojin, you will be Sanno's shrine parishioner, so it is a place where you are proud of Edo Tsuko. (A long time ago, it was said that those who lived around Koishikawa, Ushigome, and around Akasaka Azabu will go to Edo when they go to downtown. ) (17-32)


 If you read this, at the beginning of the Meiji era, you can see that those who lived around Koishikawa, Ushigome, and Akasaka Azabu said that they would go to Edo when they went to downtown.

 

 

The 9th Gishi Shinroku Hazama showed a fierce stomach (2)

[CAM] September 25, 2016 09:00

> Shinroku Hazama was separated from his father and brother, and together with nine comrades, was housed in the Kamiyashiki of the Chofu clan in Azabu Higabo. ・・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ During the strict caution, Shinroku and others, who spent a calm year-end and New Year holidays, were offered a stomach on February 4.

 The Chofu clan side considers the stomach to be a ritual, and makes proposals to the Shogunate officials.

[The side difference of the stomach, wrap the fan in paper and prepare the ten bottles ...] ("Mori family Record")

 
 Shinroku's stomach was the ninth. While clansman Era Kiyokichi set up a sword, Shinroku took action to hit his surroundings.

 
{Ma Shin-Rokuro does not take off his skin, places three treasures (treasures) in front, takes a side difference, and sticks to his belly ...} ("Mori family Record")

 
 It seems that the last appearance of Shinroku was astonishing for the gallery, who thought that the Akaho Nanji and others would be intercepted in a form similar to a fandom without cutting the abdomen directly. After a fierce and intense stomach, Shinroku Hazama scattered at the age of 24.

 
 >・ ・ ・ In the evening, the bodies of nine Nanji other than Shinroku were transported to Sengakuji Temple. ・・・・・・

 It is believed that the Chudo couple (Shinroku's older sister and wife) buried the body of Shinroku in the cemetery of Tsukiji Honganji, which was also the Bodaiji Temple.

 
>At Sengakuji Temple, as well as 45 Oishi built-in assistants who transported their bodies, Shinroku Hazama also gave posthumous Buddhist name and built tombstones together.

 
>Over time, on April 8, 1928, such an article appeared in a corner of the Asahi Shimbun.

 
{The transfer of the remains of the Gishi

 The Tokyo City Park Division has decided to apply for permission to transfer the grave of Ako Gishima Shin-Rokuro at the graveyard of Tsukiji Honganji to Takanawa Sengakuji. In other words, the grave of Shin-Rokuro now is simply a monument, and the remains are buried in Tsukiji Honganji.

 
>The details after that were introduced in detail in the Asahi Shimbun on December 15, 1929.

 
{The remains of the lawyer are missing

 A memorial service for Shin-Rokuro during a strange connection on the day of the debate.

・・・・・

 On February 13, 1929, the graveyard of Honganji was dug back for land readjustment, and ... It was dug back, but it came out from under the tombstone was similar to the bone of a young warrior Two urns that are not different, ...

 The others were buried at Sengakuji Temple as will, and could serve you for a long time after his death, but Shin-Rokuro would not be floated if there might be remains, so it became memorial service on the 14th.}

 
>At present, it can only be confirmed by the slightly remaining old photographs, but the tomb of Shinroku at the time of the early Showa era was away from the burial position of the Genroku era.

 Eventually, the remains of Shinroku Hazama were not found, and then the tombstone was moved to its current position.

 However, the tomb and the remains that returned to the soil are close to the land where the house was located at the time of the incident, where the lord Naganori Asano was born. The only one Nanji Akaho is a strange place from his comrades, and may have continued to serve as a clan residence and lord's samurai guard in a long time ago.

 
 Although not mentioned in Monoshiri Encyclopedia, such a drama was hidden in Peace pagoda in the precincts of Honganji Temple.
