流れ着いた丑年に松前へ送られてきた者で、出身地は勢州白子の幸太夫と一緒に漂流した同所の新蔵という者だということでした。現在はロシアの役人となっており、名前を「ニコライ・ハイトルイチ」と改め、あの国の女を妻とし、子供もいるということを話していました。日本の様子も尋ねられたので、適当に挨拶をしました。その後、私たちもその者の宅へ行って見たところ、三、四間ほどの家で、妻子合わせて五人で暮らしており、召使いの者はいないということでした。右の使節の方に滞在中、国王からの指示があったということで、私たちへ夜具ならびに襦袢、その外に合羽のような雨具等を作って

くれたのでもらい受けました。それから代官所へ参り、そこに滞在している間も国王からのもてなしということで、食物はパン、豚肉、魚類、酒等まで一日に二度ずつ与えられ、およそ一ヶ月半ほどいる間、車に乗り役人が付き添って所々見物に出ましたが、遠方へは出してもらえませんでした。その際、芝居見物に二度参りましたが、まったく理解できませんでした。そうしているうちに同年六月中旬頃、日本へ渡海の船で送り帰すので乗船するようにと代官から申し付けられ、その上国王から与えられたということで、四人へ羅紗一反をくれたので、即日船場まで行った際、あの国に居残った六人の者たちが見送りに

英語訳

【Right Side】
This person had drifted ashore and was sent to Matsumae in the year of the ox. His birthplace was Shiroko in Ise Province, and he was called Shinzō from the same place, who had drifted together with Kōdayū. He had now become a Russian official and changed his name to "Nikolai Haitruichi." He had taken a woman from that country as his wife and had children as well, he told us. When he asked about conditions in Japan, we gave appropriate responses. Later, we also went to visit this man's house, which was about three or four ken in size, where he lived with his wife and children—five people in total—and he said he had no servants. While staying with the aforementioned envoy, there was an instruction from the king, and they made for us bedding, undergarments, and rain gear resembling cappa.

We received these gifts. Then we went to the magistrate's office, and during our stay there as well, as hospitality from the king, we were given food including bread, pork, fish, sake, etc., twice daily. During the approximately one and a half months we remained there, we went sightseeing to various places by carriage with officials accompanying us, but they would not let us go to distant places. On those occasions, we went to see theatrical performances twice, but we could not understand them at all. While this was happening, around mid-June of the same year, we were ordered by the magistrate to board a ship that would take us back to Japan by sea. Moreover, as gifts from the king, each of the four of us was given one tan of woolen cloth. When we went to the harbor that same day, the six men who had remained in that country came to see us off.
