This report introduces the first part of diaries in 1891 (Material of Utako Shimoda No. 33), written from January to June.  This report makes a survey of Shimoda’s movements from the diaries and explains about some important events.  The style of the document is the same as the diaries investigated in previous reports; it starts with lines for date and weather; it includes time of rising, school attendance, leaving school, receiving visitors, making visits, coming home. There are some pages bound in the wrong order, and many places seem to have been damaged by insects.  In 1891, the temporary building of the Congress Hall was burned down in January; Sanetomi Sanjo, Lord Keeper of the Privy Seal of Japan (Naidaijin), died in February; and in March, the Crown Prince of the Russian Empire was attacked during his trip in Japan, in the so-called Otsu Incident.  Among these events in the year, this report focuses on The Otsu Incident.  According to the diaries, the Emperor made a consolation visit to Kyoto the day after the incident. Nishimura, principal of the Peer Women’s School, also made a consolation visit to Kyoto. Shimoda was consulted about consolation, and some embroidered goods made by students in the Peer Women’s School were sent as a consolation gift. This serious incident could have led to diplomatic problems, and I would like to reveal the tense atmosphere in which the Japanese government, with the cooperation of the Peer Women’s School, made efforts to avoid a national crisis.}, pages = {37--48}, title = {実践女子大学図書館蔵 下田歌子自筆日記について(四) 明治二十四年前半の概要}, volume = {4}, year = {2018} }
