萬書付集 / The official documents on all kinds of matters

This is an exemplary text amongst the Miyara-Dunchi collection of historical sources and is a hand-written copy by Matsumo-uji Miyara Tōshin. It contains a number of important documents including the written orders from Kuramoto in 1856, official regulations as directed by Onaga Uēkata from the Shuri Government in 1857, various other letters from the same year, and summaries of documents from the next two years. In particular, this is a valuable resource for understanding the Onaga Uēkata Yaeyamajima Kimochō, which was written by Onaga Uēkata after his inspection of the islands and his proposed improvements on local policies. This book has a number of specific events that are useful in understanding the reality of 19th century Yaeyama. There are a number of other texts with the same title because Yorozu Kakitsukeshū later came to mean the basic memoirs of government officials during the course of their employment. However, this is the one source that truly represents this title. There were texts on the reverse side of the paper and these are also considered to be important sources of Yaeyama's history.(Updated on February 27, 2015)
