一、十月中旬頃、長さ六間半程の船で帆柱二本に白い毛綿の切れを掛けた船がこの所に着岸しました。船頭のような者《割書：船頭の人体並びに船造りは前段同様の外国人》《割書：すべて造り方は同様で、全て黒塗りでございます》が私のいる家に来て主人と談合した様子で、夜になってその船に来るよう手真似をし、その主人のような者たち一人並びに船頭が同道して浜辺へ参ったところ、近辺の者たちが見送ってくれる様子で、男女二十人ほどが浜辺に出ていました。その船頭と端船で本船に乗ったところ、水主のような者六人がおり、翌朝同所を出帆《割書：船中での食物は大体前段同様でございます》して西の方へ三日程航行したところ、浜辺に着船し、端船から船頭と一緒に上陸しました。

すると前段で申し上げた九人の者が一人ずつ家の前に配置されている、家数五十ほどの村にあって、初太郎がいる家に連れて行かれたので様子を尋ねたところ、伊之助、儀三郎、惣助の三人はこの所に着いてから日数十日程過ぎて他へ送られ、その節一同で送ってもらうことを頼んだけれども、その三人以外は送ってくれず、初太郎、七太郎、万蔵、弥市の五人がこの処に残っていると初太郎が申しました。この所で私たちは都合六人になり、私は初太郎と一緒に日数二日いたところ、十月下旬にその船頭並びに私と初太郎両人を浜辺へ連れて行ったので、五人の者たちも一同で送ってくれるよう頼みましたが承知してくれませんでした。

Around mid-October, a ship about six and a half ken long with two masts hung with white cotton cloth fragments arrived at this place. The captain-like person (marginal note: The captain's appearance and ship construction were the same as mentioned before - foreign) (marginal note: Everything was made in the same way, all painted black) came to the house where I was staying and appeared to negotiate with the master. At nightfall, using gestures, he indicated we should come to the ship. The master-like person and the captain went together to the beach, where about twenty men and women from the vicinity had come out to see us off. We boarded the main ship by small boat with the captain, where six sailor-like men were present. The next morning we departed from that place (marginal note: Food aboard the ship was generally the same as mentioned before) and sailed westward for about three days before reaching another shore, where the captain and I disembarked by small boat.

There we found the nine men I mentioned earlier had each been placed in front of houses in a village of about fifty households. I was taken to the house where Hatsutaro was staying, and when I inquired about the situation, he told me that Inosuke, Gisaburo, and Sosuke had been sent elsewhere about ten days after arriving at this place. At that time, they had requested that everyone be sent together, but only those three were sent away, while Hatsutaro, Shichitaro, Manzo, and Yaichi - five men - remained at this place. With my arrival, we now totaled six people at this location. I stayed with Hatsutaro for two days, but in late October, when the captain took both Hatsutaro and me to the beach, we requested that all five remaining men also be sent away together, but this was not agreed to.
