【釋文

十四日晴定時弦月の影をふみて太湖口尓(に)向ふ「沿道死屍暒々」(註:行外增字)夜風寂多(た)り
も声惨多(た)り四時半太湖口尓(に)着し朝食をなし六時出発新竹
尓(に)向ふ十一時新竹城北門外鄭氏の邸尓(に)舎営春(す)鄭は鄭成功の子孫な
りとて其邸宅の壮麗なる庭園の宏大なる台湾国まれ尓(に)見
る処然連(れ)共乱後の常として頗る不潔をまぬ可(か)れさるいいと阿多(あた)らし午后新竹
城内尓(に)入る店頭尽く国旗を飜へし市内雑沓宛然銀座通り
の祭日の如しチャンの巡捕数名を見
る麦から帽子尓(に)金字尓(に)て
巡捕の二字を阿(あ)らはし多(た)る奇観なり此日吉田一等卒(専大郎)後
藤一等卒(甚作)脚気尓(に)て新竹病院へ入院須(す)夜酒王多(おた)る酔ふて

は眠る鄭氏の宅
