天明丙午年(一七八六)四月、ロシア人の船が渡り来たり、松前より西南の内浦(うちうら)に乗り込み、松前より西北にあたる「江嶋丁村(えじまてぃむら)」と言う処の沖の磯辺を二、三里離れて停泊した。土人(アイヌの人々)はこれを不思議に思い、「日本船にはなく、帆柱三本立て、帆布・旗多く吹き流しなども見え」、土人も「異国船である」と評議したと言う。この内海の西は山丹国(さんたんこく)であるから、「山丹の船ではないか」と評議したとも言う。朝鮮国の東は日本国・蝦夷国等であるから、古来今に至るまで漂流船もかくのごとき物はない。土人の不審も、もっともなことである。松前においては唐船番(からふねばん)もなく、誰あって松前に訴える者もなし。やがてこの所を出帆して西北の方へ乗り出した。

また同島の内、「巻村(まきむら)」と言う所の沖の磯辺、二、三里離れて碇(いかり)を下ろして泊まっていたときに、土人が猟船に乗りてかの大船に近く漕ぎ寄せて見れば、かの大船より異国人が出てきて手招きをした。故に側近く寄って見れば、異国人であることは紛れもない。言語が通じないので、気味悪く(きみはるかり)思い近寄らなかった。ロシア人は頻りに招き、土人は「いやいや」と頭を振った。今にも帰ろうとすれば、「フラスコ」(瓶)に酒を一陶(ひとかめ)、「マンレウ(マントー)」一包みを竿の先に掛けて蝦夷人に与えた。それよりこの処を出帆して西北の方へ飛ぶように走り行ったと言う。同島西蝦夷地の宗谷(そうや)村の運上屋に居合わせたる……

## (Right folio — main text)
In the fourth month of Tenmei *Hinoe-uma* (1786), a Russian vessel came sailing across and entered Uchiura Bay, to the southwest of Matsumae. It dropped anchor and lay at a distance of two or three *ri* off the rocky shores near a place called "Ejima-tei-mura," situated to the northwest of Matsumae. The Ainu natives found this remarkable: the ship bore three masts — something not seen on Japanese vessels — and numerous sails, flags, and streamers could be seen flying from it. The natives deliberated among themselves and concluded that it was a foreign ship. As the western shore of this inner sea is the land of Sandan (Manchuria), they also debated whether it might be a Sandan vessel. Given that the lands to the east of Korea are Japan, Ezochi, and so forth, no drifting vessel of such a character had ever been seen in all of recorded history. The natives' suspicion and bewilderment were entirely understandable. At Matsumae there was no watchman assigned to foreign vessels, and so there was no one to report the matter to the Matsumae authorities. Before long, the vessel weighed anchor and sailed off toward the northwest.

On the same island, at a place called "Maki-mura," the vessel again anchored two or three *ri* off the rocky shore. Some Ainu, riding in their hunting boats, rowed up close to get a look at the great ship. From the ship, foreigners emerged and beckoned to them. Drawing up alongside for a closer look, the natives could see beyond any doubt that these were indeed foreigners. As there was no common language between them, the Ainu felt uneasy and wary, and would not draw any nearer. The Russians beckoned repeatedly, while the natives shook their heads in refusal, over and over. Just as the natives were about to turn back, the Russians hung from the tip of a pole a *furasuko* (flask) filled with a measure of spirits, and a package of *manreu* (mantou/steamed buns), and presented these to the Ainu. After this, the vessel set sail from that place and sped away toward the northwest. According to those who were present at the trading post (*un'jōya*) at Sōya village in western Ezochi on the same island…
