までのところで、到着したままの状態です。御殿向きが震動で潰れ、その中より一時に火が回りましたので、御什物・御宝蔵は申すまでもなく、諸書物・帳面類を持ち出す間もなく、すべて焼失いたしました。恐れながら
御霊屋に御安置の御尊牌は辛うじて持ち出し、無事にお守り申し上げておりますので、ご安心くださいませ。今もって鎮火せず、一同愁傷ばかりでございます。まだ死亡者その他騒動の件で確実なことは分かりませんので、なお飛脚の者より詳細をお聞きくださいませ。早々以上。

伊賀守領分信濃国で去る二十四日亥の刻頃より地震で、更級郡の内稲荷村の人家が震動で潰れ、右の潰れた家より出火し一村荒れ増して焼失し、人馬の継立てができません。小県郡の内でも潰れた家並びに損傷箇所、人馬の死亡等もあり、同二十六日に至っても折々相震いたしますと、在所役人どもより申し越してきました。詳細については追って申し上げますが、右稲荷山村は宿場でございますので、伊賀守大坂在中につき、この件をお届け申し上げます。

英語訳
up to this point, remaining as they were upon arrival. The palace buildings collapsed from the shaking, and fire spread from within them instantly. Not only the ritual implements and treasure repository, but also various documents and account books could not be carried out in time, and all were completely burned. Though I speak with reverence,
the sacred memorial tablets enshrined in the Spirit Hall were barely carried out and safely protected, so please be at ease. The fire still has not been extinguished, and we are all in deep sorrow. The definitive details regarding deaths and other disturbances are not yet known, so please hear the full details from this messenger. Hastily, the above.

In Iga-no-kami's domain in Shinano Province, from around the hour of the Boar on the 24th, due to earthquakes, houses in Inari Village in Sarashina District collapsed from the shaking. Fire broke out from those collapsed houses, devastating and burning the entire village, making it impossible to provide post-horse relay services. In Chiisagata District as well, there were collapsed houses and damaged areas, deaths of people and horses. Even on the 26th, tremors continued intermittently, according to reports from local officials. I will report the details later, but since Inariyama Village is a post station, while Iga-no-kami is in Osaka, I report this matter.
