Utsunomiya Jibu-no-saemon, Ōseki Shingozaemon (Naomi), and Hori Jūbei (Hisakoto) and others came forth and, in the presence of Shikibu-no-taifu's retainers, completed the handover [of the estate]. At that time, the Construction Magistrates Shimada Sado-no-kami (Masanobu), Kuchiki Tango-no-kami (Sadamori), and Ōkubo Shimotsuke-no-kami (Tadasuke) came to oversee and direct the proceedings. To report the completion of this matter, the caretaker official (rusui) Ōseki Shingozaemon (Naomi) was dispatched as an envoy to the Duty Senior Councilor Matsudaira Kii-no-kami (Nobuyō).
