Ryôma sent this letter-one of his longest-from the Teradaya Inn in Fushimi (Kyoto) to his sister, Otome, and wetnurse, Oyabe, in Tosa. It informs them of the circumstances and character of Narasaki Ryô, his future wife. In the ninth month of 1865 (the first year of Keiô), with the support of the Satsuma domain, he established the Kameyama troupe in Nagasaki. He continued to be active in his goal of allying himself to both Satsuma and Chôshû.
