「数か月前に源太郎の京都の家の床から竹槍が発見されこと、保津峡の事故（？）の後、源太郎の死体の発見が遅れ、嵯峨村の消防団などが連夜に渡って松明を掲げて桂川(淀川水系)沿岸の捜索を行ったが、発見できなかった。数日後に千鳥ヶ淵（現在の小倉山公園の対岸）の水底に紋付きの袂に石を入れられた状態で発見されたのです。目撃談では「白足袋が水面下に漂っていた」「紋付き袴が食い込んで脱がせられなかった」とあります。つまり、一度発見された源太郎は改めて沈められたのです」（嵯峨消防団員、田中家奉公人の証言）。
A bamboo lancing was found underfloor in Gentaro's house in Kyoto several months before, and Gentaro's body could not be found following the accident (?) in Hozukyo Gorge and a fire fighting team and other in Saga village lit a Taimatsu torch and tried to search for his body along the coastline of Katsura River for consecutive nights, but in vain. Several days later, his body was found on the bottom of Chidorigafuchi moat (currently, the opposite side of Ogurayama Park) with stones in the sleeves of his kimono. According to witnesses, 'white tabi socks were floating below water' and 'his montsuki-hakama (formal kimono with family crest and divided "skirt") was too tightly fit on his body to remove it from his body.' That is, Gentaro's body was once found and again sunk in the water' (Witnessed by a member of Saga firemen team who was serving for Tanaka family). - Wikipedia日英京都関連文書対訳コーパス
