現代語訳
堀越後守忠俊は権現様(徳川家康)に属し奉り、慶長五年(庚子年)関ヶ原の御陣の砌、越後国において一揆蜂起の事があったところ、堀家の一族の働きによって悉く静謐した。この時忠俊の家臣堀監物直政並びに嫡子雅楽助直清、同二男丹後守直寄が粉骨の働きがあったため、権現様より御旨により、別して領知を下された。然るに監物直政亡き後、その子直清・直寄兄弟が権を争い、直寄が駿河へ参上し、主人越後守忠俊並びに兄監物直清を訴えた。権現様がこれを聞し召し、その国の不平なるを御憤りになり、慶長十五年(庚戌年)閏二月、堀越後守忠俊を奥州岩城の領主鳥居左京亮忠政へ御預けとし、領知を召し上げられた。家老堀監物直清は羽州最上へ廃徒を仰せ付けられた。ここにおいて堀氏本家は断絶した。新左衛門直成は越後守忠俊の妾腹の子である。忠俊が配所にて相果てた砌、その妾久嶋氏は常陸国土浦の近辺に親類があり、その所へ引き移り、翌年出生した。
信長公より秀政が拝領したという守り懐刀を、忠俊がこの妾に与えたという旨で今に伝えている。
然しながら配流の者の子であるため、密々に介抱し、壮年の後江戸表へ罷り出たところ、御旗本喜多見久大夫の母方の由緒があるため、光通公へ願い申し上げ、新左衛門直成を御家へ召し出された。
吉品公御代貞享四年(丁卯年)に跡知を下された

英語訳
Hori Echigo-no-kami Tadatoshi served under Lord Gongen (Tokugawa Ieyasu). During the Battle of Sekigahara in the 5th year of Keichō (1600, Year of the Metal Rat), when an uprising occurred in Echigo Province, it was completely pacified through the efforts of the Hori clan. At this time, Tadatoshi's retainer Hori Kenmotsu Naomasa, along with his eldest son Utanokami Naokiyo and second son Tango-no-kami Naoyori, demonstrated exceptional dedication, and therefore Lord Gongen granted them special domains by his decree. However, after Kenmotsu Naomasa's death, his sons Naokiyo and Naoyori quarreled over power, and Naoyori went to Suruga to file complaints against his master Echigo-no-kami Tadatoshi and his elder brother Kenmotsu Naokiyo. When Lord Gongen heard of this and was angered by the discord in that province, in the 15th year of Keichō (1610, Year of the Metal Dog), in the intercalary second month, he placed Hori Echigo-no-kami Tadatoshi under the custody of Torii Sakyō-no-suke Tadamasa, lord of Iwaki in Ōshū, and confiscated his domain. Chief retainer Hori Kenmotsu Naokiyo was exiled to Mogami in Ushū. Thus the main Hori family line was extinguished. Shinzaemon Naoshige was the son of Echigo-no-kami Tadatoshi by a concubine. When Tadatoshi died in exile, his concubine of the Kushima family had relatives near Tsuchiura in Hitachi Province, so she moved there and gave birth the following year.
It is said that a protective short sword that Hidemasa received from Lord Nobunaga was given by Tadatoshi to this concubine, and this tradition continues to this day.
However, since he was the son of an exile, he was secretly cared for, and after reaching adulthood he came to Edo. Since there was a maternal connection to the hatamoto Kitami Kyūdayū, a petition was made to Lord Mitsumichi, and Shinzaemon Naoshige was summoned into service.
In the 4th year of Jōkyō (1687, Year of the Fire Rabbit) during Lord Yoshishina's reign, he was granted succession rights:
