68 HONDA THE SAMURAI. The four kagobearers and the two reserves were soon swinging along the road, and at a village named, " Here we rest," without change of vehicle, fresh men jogged on to Take"fu, where a fleet horse, loaned by the local lord of Echizen, stood saddled and bridled. After swallowing a little tea and rice, the eleven miles' ride was begun. Through villages, and past rice-fields rode briskly until and wayside shrines, the the " great ninety-nine officer foot " bridge over the Ashiwa river was reached and the city gates entered. The boom of the ponderous bell in the Temple of the Eastern Light rolled out, fill- ing the air with mellow vibrations, announcing the Hour of the Tiger (3 A.M.), as Rai Goro presented his credentials, and being recognized was allowed to pass the city gates. He would have time to go home, don official dress, and ask for a special interview with his lord at the Hour of the Serpent, or 10 A.M. A messenger from the gate was dispatched to the Castle night-watch to that effect. Riding homewards he was surprised to see lights shining through the paper lattice of his own home. Dismounting at his own gate, he learned, even before the alert watchman had led away his horse, a piece of hoped-for good news. A son had been born to him that evening, shortly after lantern-time, and several of his female relatives had already come to offer congratulations to the mother and to advise concerning the name of the boy, who was, as third son, to be one of the heirs to the fortunes of the Rai family, founded by one of the captains of Hide*yasu, first lord of Echizen.
TWO BABY BOYS. 69 "Happy we!" ejaculated the officer; "a true bloodline unto the ninth ! generation My son is born in the same moon's quarter with the heir to the throne of Everlasting Great Japan. How must my " honored ancestors rejoice ! It was indeed a happy day for the wife of Rai Goro. Two daughters and two sons had already made their home happy. In Japan unless a wife bears a son the honor received from her husband is not usually great ; but Mrs. Rai was triply honored! There was joy in one household of the millions in the empire, and in the capital rejoicing because of the birth of one destined to become the one hundred and twenty-third emperor in the line of Everlasting Great Japan.
