133.SHIBUYA SHIGENAGA'S LETTERS OF DEVISE,1423 AND 1411
            (Iriki-in docs.; also KK,IV; SK, XXV and XXVI.)
THE devise by Iriki-in Shigenaga to his son Hatsu-goro-Maru, the boyhood name of his successor
Shigemochi, dated O-ei 30 y. 8 m. 16 d. (20 September 1423), is identical with the earlier Iriki-in
devises of 1371 and 1406 (Nos. 115 and 129), except that, in the later document, the following
item is inserted in the line next to "Kashiwa-zhima mura":-
   "one place: Kwan-do and Naga-toshi, in Satsuma kori." 
The Iriki-in genealogy records that, in 1436, Shigemochi was granted by Shimadzu Takahisa 6
 cho of land at Ha-shima. Cf. No. 127 B and C.
Shigemochi died some time after this date, and, in 1441, Shigenaga drew up a new devise, dated
Ka-kitsu 1 y. 2 m. 27 d. (19 March 1441), for his grandson Kiku-goro-Maru, who later, under the
name Shigetoyo, succeeded his father Shigemochi as the tenth Iriki-in lord. This devise differs from
that of 1371 (No.115) only in the following respects:-"The north part of Kiyoshiki, and the
P292
south part of the same," is written in one line; with "Ichiino mura," the phrase "one-half ji-to
 shiki and shita-ji does not occur; and after "Kashiwa-zhima mura is found the line,
  "Nagatoshi myo and its ji-to shiki,in Satsuma koriSatsumakuni."
As for Nagatoshi and Kwan-do, see Nos. 9, 107, 136A, etc.
