- Scope & Content:

Description: documents relating to administrative matters in Minamikawaraya-chō, a town in Ōsaka Minami-gumi, one of the three divisions of Ōsaka during the Edo Period. The first document is a proclamation, issued by the Edo Shogunate, known as a 'furegaki 触書', which was to be read out at a community's meeting. It states that: (1) Christians were not to be allowed to live in the area, (2) gambling and betting are prohibited, and (3) no prostitutes are allowed outside the brothels.
The second document is an attestation by the two local magistrates (Kawaraya Yasabē 瓦屋彌三兵衛 and Ishiya Genzaburō 石屋源三郎) that the proclamation has been read out each month over the year. The names of the magistrates are accompanied by twelve seals, one for each month. It is dated 1st Day 10th Month Ansei 2 [1855].
The third document, dated 30th day of the 9th Month of Ansei 3 [1856], was to be submitted to the Chief Magistrate of Ōsaka Minami-gumi, Terashima Tōemon 寺嶋藤右衛門, to accompany a copy of the second document and recording the number of inhabitants in the town: 4,446 (2,445 men and 2,001 women).
