現代語訳
安庭村・上平林村両村の辺りにある岩倉山という高山の半面両端が崩れ、一か所は三十町程、一か所は五町程の間で川中に押し込み、その辺りを押し埋めた村方もございます。しかしながら大部分が岩石であるため、とても水勢では押し切ることができない様子で、これにより次第に湛水し、平水より凡そ七、八丈にも及ぶことでしょう。それにより数か村が水中になり、その辺りは潮水のような状態でございます。もちろん種々手当てを申し付けましたが、大山で殊に岩石が押し入った件につき、人力ではどうしても行き届きかねます。また川中島平の者たちは、右の湛水がどちらへ一押しに押し出すかわからないと恐怖し、山の手へ退去しており、丹波島宿等も同様の件により人馬の継立等もできかねます。まずはこの件をお届け申し上げます。詳細については追って申し上げます。以上
4月4日 真田信濃守
当3月24日は昼から夜まで快晴で暖気であり、穏やかな日和でございましたが、同夜四つ時頃から大地震があり、信州中条村の私の陣屋の構え、練塀が所々震い倒れ、その外陣屋ばかりでなく近辺村々の農家で手弱な分は下家回りが震い倒れ、厳しく震動し、しばらく立っていられず、ようやく止まったところ、それから少しずつ間を置いて耐え難い震動があり、陣屋から北の方に当たって雷鳴のような音がし、その夜明けまでの内に凡そ八十度程震い、翌朝静かになりましたが、今でも震動は止みません。支配所の水内郡村々では潰れた家、怪我人、死人等も多分にあった由でございますが、まだ訴え出ておらず、追々風聞を承るところ、同国川...
英語訳
Near both Aniwa Village and Kamihirabayashi Village, the high mountain called Iwakura-yama collapsed on both ends of half its face. One location extended about thirty chō, and another about five chō, pushing into the river and burying the surrounding village areas. However, since most of it consists of large rocks, it appears that the water current cannot possibly wash it away. As a result, water is gradually accumulating and may reach about seven to eight jō above normal water level. This has caused several villages to become submerged, with the area resembling tidal waters. Of course, I have ordered various countermeasures, but since it involves a large mountain with rocks particularly pushed in, human efforts cannot adequately address the situation. Moreover, the people of Kawanakajima Plain, fearing that this accumulated water might burst forth in one direction, have evacuated to the mountain areas. Tanba-jima post station and others face the same situation, making it impossible to provide relay services for people and horses. I first submit this notification. I will report the details later. The above.
4th day of the 4th month Sanada Shinano-no-kami
On the 24th day of this 3rd month, from day to night it was clear and warm with calm weather, but from around the fourth hour of that night there was a great earthquake. At my camp in Nakajō Village, Shinano Province, the compound's plaster walls collapsed in various places due to shaking. Beyond just the camp, in nearby villages, the weaker farmhouses had their auxiliary buildings collapse from the severe tremors. People could barely stand for a while until it gradually stopped. From then on, unbearable tremors occurred at small intervals, with thunder-like sounds coming from the north of the camp. Until dawn, there were approximately eighty tremors. The next morning became quiet, but the shaking has not stopped even now. In the villages of Minochi District under my jurisdiction, there were reportedly many collapsed houses, injured people, and deaths, but no formal reports have been submitted yet. From rumors I have been hearing, in the same province's river...
