        69. A LIST OF WARRIORS IN CENTRAL SATSUMA, 1328
                      (A copy in Gon-Shuin docs, roll VII.)
THE list was prepared for a special purpose, which may be conjectured from the mutilated heading,
and, therefore, may not be regarded as an exhaustiv ecatalogue of the go ke-nin in the places named.
Nevertheless, the list is of much value to the student, as it throws light on the state of the feudal
society of this general region on the eve of a great civil war.
