応永年間の下知状、師匠の譲状、右馬助との取替状、永首座の書物、山本勘衛門からの状——山本勘衛門という人物は岩倉に居住しており、この勘衛門の妻は清承の叔母にあたるとのことです。それゆえ、清承の父の代から（山本家の）檀那であったとのことです。また、
清承からの返答書によれば、江戸の寺社奉行所での対決（裁定）の際に、東福寺の末寺帳に（竹林寺が）記載されていないとあり、現住持である碩蔵主が入寺した際に、京都の町人（身分の）碩蔵主の一門三人が看坊状を作成し清承へ渡したが、肝心の碩蔵主の判形（署名・印）がなく、また伝右衛門とやらいう父の判もないとのことです。しかるにあるかのように「判」と書いてあります。
一、社頭の石垣の石の掃除について、講中からその置き場所に関する件
一、貴船の不動堂の看坊が、私的に木を六本伐採したことについて、吟味（調査・審問）に参られた様子であり、詫び状を差し出すべきとの結論となった件
一、毛穴井の湯口の件、並びに昨日の洪水による流失・損壊の入口（水路・取水口）の件
英語訳
If you wish to view them, they can be obtained. Currently there are five documents.
These are: a directive (下知状) from the Ōei era; a bequest document from the master; an exchange document with Umanosuke; writings of the senior monk Ei (永首座); and a letter from Yamamoto Kanemon. This Yamamoto Kanemon resided in Iwakura, and his wife was reportedly the aunt of Seishō. For this reason, (the Yamamoto family) had been Seishō's family's patrons (檀那) since his father's generation. Furthermore,
According to the written response from Seishō: at the time of arbitration before the Edo magistrate of temples and shrines (寺社奉行), it was stated that (Chikurinji) was not listed in Tōfukuji's register of sub-temples. When the current head monk Sekizōsu entered the temple, three members of Sekizōsu's group—who were Kyoto townspeople—drew up a caretaker's document (看坊状) and handed it to Seishō, but the crucial seal/signature (判形) of Sekizōsu was absent, and it is also said that the seal of the father known as Den'emon was likewise missing. Yet it is written as if such a seal exists.
Item: Regarding where the stones cleaned from the stone wall of the shrine precincts are to be placed, a matter raised by the lecture group (講中).
Item: Concerning the caretaker of the Fudō Hall at Kibune, who privately cut down six trees — it was concluded that, given that an investigation has been initiated, a letter of apology should be submitted.
Item: Concerning the water inlet at Menai Well (毛穴井), and the inlet damaged by yesterday's flood.
