Shinano was governed by a despotic leader who though a
warrior, had a great and cowardly shrinking from anything
suggestive of failing health and strength. This caused him to
send out a cruel proclamation. The entire province was given
strict orders to immediately put to death all aged people. Those
were barbarous days, and the custom of abandoning old people
to die was not common.
