Seven survivors were transferred to Hawaii, but there, the captain was dead. Six sailors lived there till 1840, then, returned to Japan in 1843. Their lives in Hawaii were recorded, both on Japanese side ( Bandan, 1849, Tokei-monogatari, 1849, and other literatures), and American side (collected in the 10th chapter of Mary Charlotte Alexander s Dr. Baldwin of Lahaina, 1953, Berkeley, Cal.: Stanford University Press). Surprisingly enough, these literatures on both sides coincide well about the descriptions of the sailors lives in Japan before the accident and their lives in Hawaii after the accident. Several descriptions supply the lack of the Japanese or American material. So, I translated the 10th chapter of the Alexander s book into Japanese, and annotate it with Japanese literatures. 1839 1840 1843 10 10 1838 1843 05 2005 306 310 05 13 2008 10
