現代語訳
【二十五日（続き）】
先刻、神通院が参上した件などを披露したところ、評議の結果、さらに御日次（日記）をお調べになった上で、来る二十七日の御参会の際にご相談されるのが適当であるということになった。まず神通院を呼びに遣わし、この件についてはこちらにも多少の意見があるので、前述の伐採を差し止め、もし伐り取ってしまったものがあれば、その木をどこにも持ち出さず、お預かり置きになること、追って当方からご意見を伝えるべき旨を申し入れるのが適当だということで、神通院を呼びに遣わしたところ、木船（木船家の詰番所）への登山はしていないが、出京しているとのことであった。帰郷次第参上するとのことであった。会所はその時に十分に申し渡すことにした。これに関連して、享保元年（1716）から同七年（1722）までの日記を大体調べたが、該当する記録が見当たらなかったので、本日はとりあえずそのままにし、さらに二十七日に木船詰番所の日記をお調べになることとなり、皆々退散した。保韶は用事で出京するため、早めに退出した。
為替方三人が揃って出張し、勘定を吟味している様子であった。
今日も評議所で木割（材木の分配・計算）を行った。
今晩は七町の疫送りの火（疫神送りの行事）が行われた。
---
【二十六日 戊辰 晴 朝のうちは曇天で微雨、巳の刻（午前10時頃）頃から晴れ】
今朝、神通院が会所の亭へ来訪し、昨夜遅く出京し、深更に帰ったので今朝参上したとのことであった。会所は昨日と同様の内容を申し渡し、承知した上で退出した。
評議所の留守居が三平・松沈二本を持参した。
昨夜、保覚が躬清の亭へ参上し、今回の成就院の評議についての意見を申し入れた。これにより今日、躬清が普俊のところへ参上して尋ねたとのことで、途中で保土と対談し、保土の考えを申し入れたとのことである。
夕方、躬清が明日の寄会の触れのために来訪した。
正大工の留讃次郎が帷子（かたびら）の仕立てが出来上がったとして持参した。
今日、職中の六月分勘定の内算（内部集計）を行った。

【二十七日 己巳 晴】
今日は月次寄会（月例の集会）があった。出席者は、保韶・博久・業久・庸清・世顕・富清・邦氏・哲顕・季脩・茂季・保統・茂宗・季首・保鹿徳季・季甫・産幸・国清・保布・富俊・史顕・保覚・保土・直安で、会所では学顕が披露した（神主は用事により欠席と断りがあった）。
来月の月番は保韶・保統・季首・杜顕。
当月の職中勘定帳が提出され、執筆（書記役）によって読み上げられた。
例年通り七夕の御礼として公家・武家への務め（挨拶）は、どなたかが出頭されるべきか、神主へご意見を伺うべきこととなった。
去る二十二日、長門守世顕が木船から下山し、御山の枯木について詰番の筑前介保書と立会で検分を行った。その木の数の書付が披露された。合計十六本で、内訳は杉三本、シテ（栂か）一本、椴十一本である。一丈（約3メートル）廻り余りから五尺廻りまでの大きさである。また、御用に遣わされた杉の残木は屋祢板（屋根板）になる程度に伐られて、文右衛門方に預け置かれている。先日、躬清が見分した桜の木が伐られたところ、中が残らず穴だらけで虚ろになっており、御用に立たないため積み置いているとのことであった。以上は世顕の演説（報告）による。
同日、三家の遠慮御免の願いについて、保韶・保覚が出頭した件。保覚の演説（報告）による。
二十三日、川奉行の左京権亮清敏が御戸代会（神供）の魚猟に際して、月番六役が出頭した件。
二十四日、保韶・産幸のところへ、江府（江戸）の富士屋長左衛門から書状が到来し、朽木弥五左衛門殿から御初尾金百疋、虎屋織江から白銀一包、松平宮内少輔殿・小出信濃守殿からご挨拶の口上書などが届いた。また、松平下総守殿から葵使い（賀茂社への使者）両人へ、例年通り金五百疋が下されたものが、今日届いた。
英語訳
**[25th Day, continued]**
When the matters just presented — including Jintsūin's visit — were reported, the deliberation concluded that it would be appropriate to examine the daily records (hinami) further and then consult at the assembly (gosankai) scheduled for the 27th. First, a messenger was sent to summon Jintsūin, with the intent to convey that this side had certain opinions on the matter, that the felling should be suspended, and that if any trees had already been felled, the timber should not be moved anywhere but held in custody — and that instructions would follow in due course. When the messenger was sent for Jintsūin, however, it was found that he had not gone up the mountain to Kifune (to the Kifune duty office), but had gone into the capital (Kyoto). He would present himself upon returning. The meeting hall would deliver the appropriate instructions at that time. In connection with this matter, the daily records from Kyōhō 1 (1716) through Kyōhō 7 (1722) were broadly examined, but no relevant entry was found. Therefore the matter was left as it stood for the day, and it was decided that the daily records at the Kifune duty office would be examined further on the 27th. Everyone then dispersed. Hohō left early as he had business requiring him to go into the capital.
The three officials of the currency exchange (kawase-kata) all went out together and appeared to be reviewing accounts.
Timber allocation discussions (kikiwari) were also held today at the deliberation chamber.
This evening, the fire ritual for sending away plague spirits (ekiokuri-no-hi) was performed in the seven districts (shichō).

**[26th Day, Tsuchinoe-Tatsu (Cyclical date), Clear — Overcast with light rain in the morning, clearing around the Hour of the Snake (approx. 10 a.m.)]**
This morning, Jintsūin came to the meeting hall, reporting that he had gone into the capital the previous night and returned very late, and had therefore come to present himself this morning. The meeting hall conveyed the same instructions as the previous day, and Jintsūin acknowledged them and withdrew.
The caretaker (rusui) of the deliberation chamber brought two pieces of pine timber (sanshin nihon).
Last night, Hokyaku had visited Mishikiyo's residence and offered his views on the current deliberations concerning Jōjuin. As a result, today Mishikiyo went to visit Fusutoshi and made inquiries. On the way, he met with Hodo and communicated Hodo's thoughts to them.
In the evening, Mishikiyo came to deliver notice of tomorrow's gathering.
The master carpenter Tome Sanjirō came to deliver a completed katabira (unlined summer garment).
Today, the internal accounting (naisan) of the sixth-month accounts for the professional staff (shokunaka) was conducted.

**[27th Day, Tsuchinoto-Mi (Cyclical date), Clear]**
Today was the monthly regular gathering (tsukiji yoriiai). Those in attendance were: Hohō, Hirohisa, Narishisa, Yōsei, Yotaka, Tomokiyo, Kuniuji, Tetsuki, Sueharu, Shigeharu, Yasumune, Shigesome, Suenokubi, Hoshuketsuji, Sueharu, Sankō, Kunikyo, Yasubuno, Tomotoshi, Fumitaka, Hokyaku, Hodo, and Naoyasu. The meeting hall was presided over by Gakunori (the shrine chief sent his apologies, citing other duties).
The monthly duty officials (tsukiban) for next month: Hohō, Yasumune, Suenokubi, and Moritaka.
The monthly accounts book (kanjo-chō) for the professional staff was submitted and read aloud by the secretary (shippitsu).
Regarding the customary New Year's Tanabata (seventh night) courtesy calls to both court nobles (kuge) and warrior houses (buke), it was decided that the matter of who should attend should be referred to the shrine chief.
On the 22nd of last month, Nagato-no-kami Yotaka descended from Kifune and, together with the duty official Chikuzen-no-suke Hosho, conducted an inspection of the dead and fallen trees on the sacred mountain (oyama). A written list of the number of trees was then presented. The total was sixteen trees: three cedars, one (possibly tuga), and eleven fir/larch (toda). Their girths ranged from over one jō (approximately 3 meters in circumference) down to five shaku. In addition, the remaining timber from the cedars designated for official use had been felled to a size suitable for roofing boards (yaneba) and left in the custody of Bunemon. As for the cherry tree that Mishikiyo had previously inspected and that had been felled, the interior was found to be entirely hollowed out with holes throughout, rendering it unfit for official use, and it had been stacked aside. This was reported by Yotaka.
On the same day: regarding the petition for the three households (sanka) to be released from their period of restraint (enryo), Hohō and Hokyaku attended. This was reported by Hokyaku.
On the 23rd: concerning the river magistrate (kawa-bugyō) Sakyō-no-gonnosuke Kiyotoshi and the fishing for divine offerings (jingu-gyoryō) at the御戸代会 (Otodashirokai), the monthly six-officer duty roster was in attendance.
On the 24th: letters arrived for Hohō and Sankō from Fujiya Chōzaemon in Edo (Kōfu), along with: an initial gift (hatsuō) of one hundred hiki in gold from Lord Kuchiki Yagozaemon; one wrapped packet of silver from Toraya Orie; and written courtesy messages from Lord Matsudaira Kunaishoyu and Lord Koide Shinano-no-kami. Also, the annual gift of five hundred hiki in gold from Lord Matsudaira Shimōsa-no-kami, presented to the two Aoi messengers (envoys to the Kamo Shrine), arrived today in the customary manner.
