The body is decayed in Nobe of Musashi, and the Yamato soul 21 times Takeshi (Yoshida Shoin)
It was near noon on October 27, 1859, that Yoshida Shoin (1830-1859), a revolutionary thinker of the late Tokugawa shogunate who had trained many rebels, was executed at the Temmacho prison (now Nihonbashikodenmacho 3-5).
In May of this year, Hagino Noyamagoku was sent to Edo by the order, and on July 9, he was called at the Shogunate Rating Office and entered Temmacho. Suspirations such as the relationship with Umeda Unhama will be cleared, but they will be guilty of death because they will open a measure for victory during the old and middle age. The slashed was Asaemon Yamada (Yoshitoshi Seventh), and he said that the end of Shoin was dignified and wonderful. The remains of Shoin are buried from Kozukahara to Wakabayashi-mura, Ebara-gun (currently Wakabayashi, Setagaya-ku) by gatekeepers. This was the land of Mori family, and in 1882, Shoin Shrine was founded on the grave. In 1907, Shoin Shrine was founded in Hagi, but both enshrined deity and Yoshida Shoin (Torajiro Yoshida Norikata Fujiwara) and the annual festival is October 27.
The Temmacho Shimogoku in Shoin was the second time since the attempted Shimoda smuggling incident (1854), but as in the first time, it seems that he was treated quite well thanks to his friend and gatekeeper. The prisoner Yoshigoro Numazaki and the prison graduate Kinroku, paid tribute to Shoin and helped. A book of the will, "Remorse Record", which begins with the resignation written at the beginning, is entrusted to Numazaki and is still present at Hagi Shoin Shrine.
The Temmacho prison was abolished in 1875, but the site was no one who lived as a devastating land, and there is a story in "Old Mon Nihonbashi" that Shigure Hasegawa's father refused to give it for free.) Temples, parks and schools are available. Currently, it is a temple such as Daianrakuji Temple, Jisshi Park, and Jushi Square. A monument engraving the resignation of Shoin is on the northeast side of Jisshi Park. At the ruins of the execution site in the southeast corner of the prison mansion, you can see the found amount of the casting of the Enmei guardian of children and travelers of Daianrakuji Temple and Tesshu Yamaoka's book "Tame Prison Dead Group Recession" at the foot of Jizo.
At Jisshi Park, when lunch comes, people working in the neighborhood eat lunch and spread newspapers. The old abominable place is now a bright resting place.
