をはじめ、諸組の弓・銃の業、金鼓の法、および鳥狩の節においても、右の趣旨にて御掟も相立てられ、もっとも武役の面々は一統して御流役兵学修行をも仰せ付けられる儀であって、口授の趣が一般に（伝わって）いなければ成り難い儀である。数馬については、元来、黒河内十大夫の門弟の儀であるから、さらに江戸表において相学んだ宝田家伝来（の内容）を十大夫へ申し聞かせ、練兵始めの吟味が相済んだ分より指南致すよう、かつ兼ねてこちら（会津）に伝来の説にも誤り等がないとは言えない。宝田家伝来において最もよい儀

があれば相改めるのは当然のことである。同門の儀であれば、宝田家伝来の口授を申し聞かせる儀に遠慮もあるかもしれないが、この度の儀は上（藩）より修行を仰せ付けられた儀であって、一己の嗜みとして一通り相学んだこととは訳が違う儀であるから、右の通り心得るべき旨を仰せ聞かされた。
但し、本文の通り仰せ付けられ、その後、吟味が始まらないうちは、内望の者へは勝手次第指南致すよう、さらに仰せ付けられ、会日には武構を貸すべきであるが、御普請があるので、まず

...including training mounted samurai (kōshi) and foot soldiers (ashinarami) in the arts of the bow and gun practiced by the various units, the methods of drums and gongs (kinko no hō), and also in the context of bird hunts (tori-gari), regulations were to be established in accordance with the above principles. Furthermore, since all members of the military service (buyaku no menmei) were to be ordered to undergo training in the official school's military science, the oral transmissions (kōju) could not remain confined to only some individuals—they needed to be made generally available. Since Kazuma was originally a disciple of Kurokauchi Jūdayū, he was ordered to convey to Jūdayū the oral teachings (kōju) of the Hōda family transmission that he had further studied in Edo, and to provide instruction beginning with those portions whose examination (ginmi) in military drills had been completed. Moreover, it was noted that the teachings transmitted here in (Aizu) were not necessarily free of errors. If there were superior elements

in the Hōda family transmission, it was of course appropriate to revise accordingly. Since they were of the same school (dōmon), there might be some hesitation about conveying the oral teachings of the Hōda family transmission; however, since this matter was one in which training had been ordered from above (i.e., by the domain), it was fundamentally different from studying a subject as a personal pursuit or hobby. He was therefore instructed to bear the above in mind.
Note: In accordance with the main text above, he was so ordered. Furthermore, he was additionally ordered that until the formal examination (ginmi) had begun, he should provide instruction to those who privately desired it (nochimochi no mono) at his own discretion. Regarding lending the martial training hall (bukamai) on meeting days (kaijitsu), although this was intended, since there were domain construction works (go-fushin) underway, for the time being...
