I suppose that it’s getting cooler in Japan. According to the news
of Japan, the climate in Japan is nice this year. I suppose that
you’ll have good harvest. Congratulations from ‘??’, distant place.
You may be suffered that workers can’t be found, may not? I wish
you all may be in good health and be happy from ‘??’, distant
place. Good-bye. Hikoichi”.” A few minor faults but a very scarce
