September of the 12th year (A.D.1923), there was a great earthquake and a conflagration broke out. Everywhere there were groans of pains from the wounded. Sensei, feeling pity for them, went out every morning to go around the town, and he cured and saved an innumerable number of people.
Due to his respected and far reaching reputation, many people from local districts wished to invite him. Sensei, accepting the invitations, went to Kure, and then to Hiroshima and Saga, and reached Fukuyama. Unexpectedly, he became ill and passed away there. It was March 9 of the 15th year of Taisho (A.D. 1926), aged 62.
