『THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN, 1891.』の研究 その3

抄録

 This article increased consideration in “THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN, 1891.” (following, GEJ.) of the photograph commentary of the first edition. It is the following points to become clear.
 The schedule of Mr. Burton thought to be the author were written down for the photograph commentary of GEJ., but Burton original mention was limited to two points of arrival at Nagoya of October 29 and the Biwajima investigation of the next day. Because mention of November 3 is quotation from JWM., we cannot use it for consideration without criticizing it. Approximately 21% in the photograph commentary of this book are quotation from the article of “the Japan Weekly Mail.” (following, JWM.). The address of gratitude for Mr. J. E. Beale in "PREFACE." of GEJ. is regarded as the reward that reprinted an article of JWM. in the photograph commentary. A lot of articles of signatory P.Q in “the Japan Weekly Mail.” were quoted to the photograph commentary of GEJ.. I can judge signatory P.Q. to examine a schedule with another person with Mr. Burton. Including this part, the quotation to GEJ. ranges from JWM. to 22%.
