Midluno Idlumi No Kami to A. L. C. Portman, September 7, 1865
No. 4.
The Gorogio to Mr. Portman
As it has been represented that foreigners meet with inconvenience in purchasing silkworm eggs from our merchants, I have again instructed the governor of Kanagawa to allow this article to be as freely sold as any other article of commerce.
Stated for your information, in reply, with respect and esteem.
The 16th day of the 7th month of the year of Ke-U, (7th September, 1865.)
MIDLUNO IDLUMI NO KAMI.
A. L. C. Portman, Esq., Chargé d’ Affaires of the United States of America, &c., &c., &c.
