【躬清からの申し入れについて】
躬清から申し入れるはずであったが、少々行き違いがあったため、躬清からの申し入れが延引となった。

**十一日（丑の日）曇り** 社中は静穏。今日から土用に入る。酉の八刻（午後6時頃）からである。
一、今朝、月次御祈祷・朝祈祷が行われた。神主月番の手より一人ずつ出頭した。《割書：六番衆の出番で、存顕が担当》
一、昨日、保覚へ芭蕉布の代金として百疋を持参し、邦氏の座敷にて渡した。なお、故・主殿少允の後より社中への届け書は、光丸大夫・浦野氏弥の両名からの届けである。この書の下書きも保覚の依頼により書き遣わした。
---
**十二日（寅の日）晴れ**
一、今日は月次寄合である。出席した神主は、正久・保韶・庸清・兼令・邦氏・哲顕・季脩・保統・季宝・茂宗・季首・保鹿・徳季・季甫・国清・杜顕・富俊・保覚・保土。
執筆代は直安、代理で保布が会所にて取り次ぎ、学顕が披露を行った。月番は博久・史顕。評議所への薪取山の出頭については断りを申し出た。富清は日供献進の番につき不参加。茂季・直安は所労（病気）のため不参加。その他にも不参加者あり。
一、禄銭の件について、職中が勝手に回覧してよいか。→ 評議：勝手に回覧すべし。
一、去る九日の祈雨報賽の御祈祷が、当社・木船ともに滞りなく済まされた件について。この折に木船へ加賀守・躬清が参勤した際、詰番の上野介より申し聞かされたことがあった。番所の傍らにある桜の木が枯れており、危険に見えると。もし倒れれば延命寺の雪隠（便所）の上へ倒れることになり、御失墜（失態）にもかかわるため、伐採すべきではないか。ついでに躬清に見分（検分）してもらいたいとのことであった。そこで検分したところ、確かにその通りであった。近日中に修理方が登山するので、その折に伐採してはどうか。→ 評議：修理方が登山の節に伐採すべし。
一、同日、木船詰番より手紙が届いた。先日申し付けた神子屋の石垣が昨日までに完成したとのこと。代金は五百文。最初は五人工と見積もっていたが、四人工で済んだとのこと。
一、八日の寄合後、銀子の調達についての相談として小寄合が開かれた。小山郷中との相談もあり、十手中へ相談した上で決議し、翌九日の昼食後に老若が参会して催すこととなった。
一、九日、執行代を呼びに遣わしたところ、他出中であったため、翌十日に兵部卿を招き、小山郷中の件を申し渡した。
一、十日、淡路守成寿の子息が死去したため、忌服の届け書を例の通り、伝奏・御奉行・雑掌中まで手紙にて申し遣わした。
一、十日、四番衆・六番衆より小山郷の件について返答の口上書が差し出された。両手とも概ね同意の内容で、社中へのお頼みの趣旨であった。
一、同日、一番衆・二番衆・三番衆・五番衆・七番衆・八番衆より返答を若役の口上にて申し入れた。皆々同様の内容で、社中へのお頼みの趣旨であった。
一、同日、美作介宏季より印鑑の改印の届けがあった。
一、同日、上野介・重竹の詰番交代の届けがあった。この折に申し聞かされたことに、木船御山の内に椴の木（とどまつ）で完全に枯れているものがあり、朽ちないうちに伐採されるのが適当とのこと。山廻りの者どもから注進があったとのことである。→ 評議：近日中に修理方が登山するので、その際に詰番と相談の上、ご見分されるのがよい。
一、十一日、執行代のもとへ常信院が訪れ、申し聞かされたことに、小山郷中の件について寺家中へも銘々届けたとのこと。しかしながら今もって諾否の返事がなく、このまま見かけ倒しになってしまうことは非常に困るが、一分（個別）の見取は到底叶いがたいため、御一社中へお頼み申し上げたく、寺家中一同が願い奉るとのことであった。
英語訳
**[Continuation from previous page regarding Mikikyo's report]**
Mikikyo was supposed to make the report, but due to a slight miscommunication, the report from Mikikyo was delayed.
---
**11th Day (Ushi day), Cloudy.** The shrine community was peaceful. Today marks the beginning of the *doyō* (midsummer period). It begins at the eighth hour of the Rooster (approximately 6 PM).
- This morning, the monthly prayer (*tsukishiro* ceremony) and morning prayers were conducted. One person from the rotating-duty shrine priest group attended per shift. *(Marginal note: It was the sixth group's turn, with Sonken assigned.)*
- Yesterday, one hundred *hiki* (a unit of currency) was brought as payment for banana-fiber cloth (*bashōfu*) for Hokaku and delivered at Kunishi's sitting room. Additionally, following the late Toneri-no-Shōjō's death, the notification to the shrine community was submitted by two people: Kōmarudayū and Urano Ujiya. The draft of this notice was also written and sent at Hokaku's request.
---
**12th Day (Tora day), Clear.**
- Today was the monthly assembly (*yoriai*). The attending shrine priests were: Masahisa, Hokushō, Yōsei, Kenrei, Kunishi, Tetsken, Suenaga, Hoto, Suehō, Shigemune, Suekazu, Hoshika, Tokusue, Suenoshimo, Kunikiyo, Moriaki, Tomotoshi, Hokaku, and Hodo.
The secretary (*shippitsu*) position was filled by proxy by Naoyasu, and Honu served as intermediary at the meeting hall, with Gakken making the announcements. The monthly duty officials were Hirohisa and Fumiatsu. The request for attendance at the *Hyōgisho* (council hall) for firewood mountain matters was declined. Tomikiyo did not attend due to his duty of daily offerings. Shigetsue and Naoyasu were absent due to illness. Others were also absent.
- Regarding the question of whether *roku-sen* (salary payments) could be circulated independently by those in charge: → Decision: They may circulate it independently.
- Regarding the rain prayer ceremony of the 9th being completed without incident at both the main shrine and Kibune: On this occasion, when Kagano-kami and Mikikyo visited Kibune on duty, the on-duty official Kōzunosuke reported that a cherry tree near the guardhouse appeared to be dead and dangerous. If it were to fall, it would land on the outhouse of Enmei-ji Temple, which could cause an embarrassing incident. He asked whether it should be cut down and requested that Mikikyo inspect it while there. Mikikyo inspected it and confirmed this to be the case. Since the maintenance officials (*Shūrihō*) would be ascending the mountain soon, it was suggested the tree be cut at that time. → Decision: The tree should be felled when the maintenance officials next ascend.
- On the same day, a letter arrived from the Kibune duty official, reporting that the stone wall at the *Mikogoya* (shrine maidens' building), which had been ordered previously, was completed by yesterday. The cost was 500 *mon*. Although initially estimated at five days of labor, it was completed in four.
- After the assembly on the 8th, a small meeting was held to discuss raising funds (*ginko chōtatsu*). There were also discussions with the people of Oyama Village, and after consulting with all ten groups, a decision was reached. The following day, the 9th, the elder and younger members gathered after lunch to finalize matters.
- On the 9th, a messenger was sent to call the *shūgyōdai* (acting administrator), but he was out; so on the following 10th, Hyōbukyō was invited, and the matter regarding Oyama Village was conveyed.
- On the 10th, as the son of Awajinokami Naruju had passed away, the customary letter of condolence and bereavement notice was sent by letter to the *Tenso*, the *Bugyō*, and the *Zassho* (administrative offices).
- On the 10th, the fourth and sixth groups submitted written responses (*kōjōgaki*) regarding the Oyama Village matter. Both groups' responses were broadly in agreement, indicating that they were entrusting the matter to the shrine community.
- On the same day, the first, second, third, fifth, seventh, and eighth groups submitted their responses orally through their junior officials (*wakayaku*). All were of the same opinion, entrusting the matter to the shrine community.
- On the same day, a notice was received from Mimasaka-no-suke Hiroki regarding a change of seal (*ingyō aratame*).
- On the same day, there was a notice of a duty rotation at Kibune between Kōzunosuke and Shigchiku. On this occasion, it was reported that there was a completely dead fir tree (*todo*) within Kibune's sacred mountain, and that it should be felled before it rots. This information had been reported by those patrolling the mountain. → Decision: Since the maintenance officials will be ascending shortly, they should inspect it together with the duty officer at that time.
- On the 11th, Jōshin-in visited the *shūgyōdai* and reported that the matter of Oyama Village had been individually communicated to each member of the *jike-chū* (temple families). However, since no reply of acceptance or refusal had yet been received, and being left in suspense was very problematic, since individual assessment (*ippun no miton*) was still extremely difficult to fulfill, they wished to make a formal request to the entire shrine community, and all members of the *jike-chū* were united in this appeal.
