Oshiroi-machi is the town where many of Yasujiroʼs local friends lived. He often went to restaurants with them. His family doctor also lived there.

The above photo shows Yasujiro with his friends in elementary school. He wrote in his diary on January 5, 1918, “Since we canʼt meet in the third term, we will gather at Shibuyaʼs house.”

This photo was probably taken in the Photo Studio Shibuya, the owner of which was the father of Yasujiroʼs friend.
