The above instructions were conveyed from Munenori-sama to O-Yoshimaru-sama via messenger, the household official (goyōnin) Shimada Seizaemon (Shigeyuki).
Item: Twenty-eighth day of the seventh month (at the half-hour of the Sixth, approximately 7:00 a.m.)
O-Yoshimaru-sama's proxy, Echigo-no-kami (Nagayoshi)-sama, wearing formal long hakama (nagabakama), proceeded to the castle. In the Black Audience Chamber (Kuro Shoin), congratulations were presented for the pronouncement of adoption.
From O-Yoshimaru-sama:
To the Kubō-sama (the Shogun): One sword, one horse (in lieu thereof, ten ryō of gold), one hundred bundles of cotton wadding, one box of kombu kelp, one box of dried sea bream, and one cask of sake were presented.
To the Ōgosho-sama (the Retired Shogun) and the Dainagon-sama: One sword, one horse (in lieu thereof, ten ryō of gold), fifty bundles of cotton wadding, one box of dried sea bream, and one cask of sake each were presented.
