249 His place of burial was identified in 1872 by Mr. James Walter of Yokohama on a beautiful hill near Yokosuka, where both he and his Japanese wife lie buried. His will, which was deposited in the archives of the East India Company in London, divided his estate equally between his Japanese and English families. His Japanese landed estate was probably inherited by his Japanese son. His personal estate is stated at about five hundred pounds sterling.—See _Letters of William Adams_, p. 39. 250 Hildreth’s _Japan_, etc., p. 142, quoted from Purchas, vol. i., p. 406. 251 Hildreth’s _Japan_, etc., p. 157. 252 See _Letters of William Adams_, No. 1. 253 See Purchas’ _Pilgrimes_, part 1, book iv. 254 These privileges are given in full by Hildreth, p. 169, taken from Purchas. 255 Mr. Satow has collected many facts concerning the history of printing in Japan, and among others has shown that printing with movable type in Korea was used as early as 1317, that is one hundred and twenty-six years before the date of the first printed book in Europe.—_Asiatic Society Transactions_, vol. x., p. 63. 256 A translation of this document was made by Mr. J. F. Lowder and published in Yokohama in 1874. We are indebted to W. E. Grigsby, Esq., formerly professor of law in the University of Tōkyō, for a valuable paper on the _Legacy of Ieyasu_ in which a careful analysis is given and a comparison of its details is made with the provisions for the regulation of early communities elsewhere.—See _Asiatic Society Transactions_, vol. iii., part 2, p. 131. 257 Ieyasu may have had in mind a shocking example of _junshi_ (dying with the master) which occurred in his own family. Tadayoshi, his fifth son, to whom had been assigned an estate in Owari, died young, and five of his retainers, in order to follow their master, committed _hara-kiri_ in accordance with the old feudal custom. This is believed to have been almost the last instance of the kind, and must have touched Ieyasu very closely.—_Mikado’s Empire_, by W. E. Griffis, D.D., p. 272. 258 Notwithstanding this positive prohibition left by Ieyasu, occasionally the strength of the old feudal habit was too great for the more merciful spirit. It is said when the third shōgun of the Tokugawa family (Iemitsu) died, two of the daimyōs, Hotta of Sakura and Abe of Bingo, committed _hara-kiri_. Hotta’s sword, still stained with blood, is retained in the _kura_ of the daimiate at _Tōkyō_, and on the anniversary of the event is shown to the _samurai_, who appear on the occasion in full dress.
