Yazama Kinai Fujiwara no Mitsunobu.
(矢間喜内藤原光延).

Mitsunobu was a loyal retainer serving as a magistrate in a remote area receiving a stipend of 200 koku and a fee of seven ryō. He excelled in the spear technique and espite being considered an old man, his performance in martial contests during his later years was not inferior to the vigor of younger men. He faced his opponents courageously and caused them great trouble.
Upon achieving his lifelong goals, he retired to the Sengaku-ji Temple. At the gate of the estate where he resided, there was a poem engraved next to a discarded spear, which says: "Having lived without regrets, I now enjoy the pleasures of old age".
It is known that Mitsunobu resided in Gamo, Echizen Province, and was from the Fujiwara lineage. He had two sons, both of whom also stood as valiant warriors. At the time of the event he was 69 years old but as a true loyalist, he is worthy of being counted among them.
