A Japanese woman once told me that this text means, "Big Island". I think it is "Japan"? I can't remember all that she said about it. |

I believe this to be a painting on silk. |

This photograph was loose as well. Some of the names are on the back of the photograph. Not all the people are named. "Our man" is on the left of the photo. |

"Our man" with a group of men at an industrial site. Were they studying how to earthquake proof structures? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Another photo of the same group of men. |
|

This is one of the men that "Our man" visited. I believe he may have stayed with this man's family. Are they sitting in a University? Is this the building where "civil engineers" worked from? It is a very interesting room. I like this room very much! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
"Our man" eating with his host? They are in a room that looks like a library or similar room. |

"Our men" and colleagues surveying earthquake damage? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Is this a photo of earthquake damage? |
|

The men where they were looking out over the city. |
|
|
|

|
|
|
Two men at the roadside where they were looking out over the city. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The men a hillside and an automobile. I like this style of car. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Is this where they were, when they were looking out over the city? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Inspecting a bridge. Someone is showing the men a bridge. Are they looking at earthquake damage? Or are they looking at earthquake proofing measures? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This may be the bridge they were inspecting. |

Earthquake damage I believe. In the "fog" you can make out two dark shapes. They are much clearer in the original photograph. It looks like a man? (person) with a large bundle of goods on his back? Behind him is appears to be a smaller dark shape. That is either a child or a dog. The larger dark shape in front, is a donkey loaded with goods. |
