諸役方へ
○昨年来思し召しをもって段々御締まり方仰せ付け置かれ候処、何れも存じ寄り宜しく、役所取り扱い筋の勘弁をもって少しずつでも御減額方相聞こえ、奇特の事に候。この上なお又相緩み申さざるよう勘弁あるべく候。
　　　　三月十八日　但し御発駕前日なり

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　御奉行
○三国湊沖の口、米穀出船指し留められ、入船の儀指し免され候間、前々の通り取り扱うべく候。

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　四郡奉行
○百姓共心得方の儀、兼ねて仰せ渡しもこれあり、別して去る秋厳重の仰せ渡しもこれあり候処、相緩み候よう相聞こえ候。なお又厳重相触れ置かれ候て、以来の処仰せ渡しに相背く者これあり候わば、各々役所において吟味致し相達すべく候。
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　町奉行
○町人共心得方の儀、去る秋厳重仰せ渡しもこれあり候えども、月日を経て自然と相緩み候ようになり候ては相済まず候。しかしながら改めて又々触れ等指し出し候ては、町家の心得により自然商売体へも相障り候ような儀もこれあり候てはいかがに候。取り締まり方の儀は御自分心配にあるべく候。総じて諸道具・衣服等に依らず奢侈がましき品商い致さず候えば、自然と費用も薄く相成り候間、これらの儀相考え、連々宜しく取り計らうべく候。

英語訳

To All Departments
○Since last year, cost-cutting measures have been ordered by his lordship's will, and it is commendable that all departments have shown good judgment and, through careful management of their operations, have achieved even small reductions in expenses. You should continue to exercise prudence and not become lax in this matter.

○At the mouth of Mikuni Port, outgoing rice ships are prohibited, but incoming ships are permitted. Handle this matter as before.
　　　　Same day
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Magistrate of Four Districts
○Regarding the conduct of farmers, instructions have been given previously, and particularly strict orders were issued last autumn. However, it has been reported that there is some relaxation in compliance. Strict notices shall be issued again, and if there are any who violate the orders in the future, each official shall conduct investigations at their offices and report accordingly.
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Town Magistrate
○Regarding the conduct of townspeople, strict orders were issued last autumn, but as time passes, there tends to be natural relaxation, which is unacceptable. However, issuing repeated notices might interfere with business operations depending on how the townspeople interpret them, which would be problematic. The matter of enforcement should be handled with your own discretion. Generally, if people refrain from dealing in luxurious goods, whether tools, clothing, or other items, expenses will naturally decrease. Consider these matters and handle them appropriately going forward.

○Regarding the reclamation of abandoned farmland in rural areas, magistrates are appointed to oversee this, with one foot inspector also assigned to the same task.

　　　　　Separate document to be communicated to deputy officials　　Magistrate
○Due to the recent flooding, it has been reported that in some flood-affected villages, standing crops that actually survived the flood damage are being neglected and abandoned. Such behavior is unacceptable. Conduct strict investigations, and for any surviving crops, however small, ensure they are not neglected. Of course, care must be taken in handling matters so that there is no confusion between previously abandoned land and newly damaged areas. Since instructions have been given previously, there should be no misunderstanding, but if there are any mistakes and officials only focus on disaster relief while neglecting the most important farmland, resulting in its deterioration becoming known to outsiders, the deputy officials will be held responsible for negligence. Convey this message accordingly.
