一 社司よりさらに（重ねて）提出する写し（控え）
一 先度（以前）に提出した祝職の系図を、氏人方より上申し、そちら（伝奏方）へお見せいただいた件につき、重説・重村が権祝の代理を務めていることは、社頭の「はりふ」（張札・貼り付け書き）以下においても、今日に至るまで権祝の代（代理）として御座候。御不審に思し召し候はば、人をお遣わしになってご覧いただければよく候こと。
一 右のほか、氏人より（証拠となる）例を提出申し候儀につき、そちら（伝奏方）へお見せいただけますよう。その上にて返答申し入れるべく候こと。
一 往古より氏人が社官の職に就いた儀は、全くもって御座なく候。社官の系図・旧記以下（の文書において）、氏人が社官に登ったとの儀は御座なく候。社官と氏人との家職はそれぞれ別にて御座候。御不審の節は、その分（内容）をすべて書き付けにて申し上げるべく候こと。
右の通り、先規（先例・旧来の慣例）よりの社法の儀に候間、いかようにも（詳しく）詮索（ご調査）いただきたく候。少しも新儀（新たな慣例）を申し上げているのではなく候。先の書（前の文書）にも申し上げた通り、虚言の儀を申し上げ候はば、御糺明仰せ付けられるべく候。仍って

Entry: A further copy (重ねて提出する写し) submitted by the shrine administrators.
Entry: Regarding the genealogy of the Hafuri position that was previously submitted by the ujibito and shown to your office (the Court Liaison): the fact that Shigeto and Shigemura have been serving as deputies (代) of the Gon-Hafuri is evidenced by the posted notices (はりふ) and other documents at the shrine, all of which confirm that they have served as Gon-Hafuri deputies up to the present day. Should you harbor any doubt in the matter, we respectfully request that an envoy be dispatched to examine the situation directly.
Entry: Concerning any examples (precedents) submitted by the ujibito apart from those mentioned above, we request that these be shown to our side as well. Upon reviewing them, we will submit our formal response.
Entry: From ancient times, there has been absolutely no instance of an ujibito rising to the position of shrine official (社官). In the genealogies of shrine officials and historical records (旧記) and other documents, there is no case of an ujibito becoming a shrine official. The official duties (家職) of shrine officials and those of ujibito are entirely separate. Should there be any doubt regarding this matter, we will submit a full written account of all particulars.
As stated above, these matters all accord with shrine law as established from precedent (先規). We therefore respectfully request that a thorough investigation be conducted. We are not asserting anything that constitutes a new practice (新儀). As stated in our previous document, should anything we have submitted prove to be false, we are prepared to accept whatever investigation or punishment may be ordered. Written accordingly—
