Description | Melted lumps of metal Donor / Shikaji Tamura Approx. 150 m from the hypocenter Sarugaku-cho (now, Kamiya-cho 2-chome) Shikaji Tamura was exposed at work at the Ujina Factory of Ota Furniture Store. He tried to get to the head store at Sarugaku-cho, but fires blocked him from the city center and forced him to turn back. On the 9th, he came back to Sarugaku-cho and found the store completely burnt and destroyed. The office safe was knocked over but intact. He kept these melted lumps that he found on top of the safe. |
