the red grave...

Original Text

If you climb a little slope from Jizoji Temple in Hakodate, a bright red tombstone suddenly appears in the graveyard. It is said that it is the grave of the person who distributed the extra-newspaper issue with a whole body red in the Meiji era, and it is a red grave with a trademark so that it stands out even after death. It's quite uncomfortable, but it's definitely noticeable.

If you go further up from the Foreigner Cemetery, there is another graveyard on the left and right sides of the road. There are many tombstones lined up, but I noticed it immediately without looking for them because of the bright red tombstone. From coat to tabi It seems that he distributed the Hokkaido Shimbun extra-paper to Hakodate citizens in a costume full-body red. The explanation was written on the right hand side of the tombstone.

red gravestones aren't normal.

Further back from the foreigner's graveyard. It's a little far. Red tombstones are usually impossible, but this person who handled extra-signal items will be proud even after he dies. That's why I tried to stand out. There was also an explanation board beside it.

There is a red grave near the foreigner's graveyard on Mt. Hakodate. It is the grave of Sukejio Shinano. He was wearing red clothes and distributed extras from the Hokkaido Shimbun.

I feel a little creepy.

A red grave stands out on the road when you go beyond the foreigner's graveyard and further along the grave. It is said that it represents an honest heart and a red heart, but I feel that the red is a little unpleasant in the grave. The location is also far from the tourist spot, so if you come all the way here, please be prepared.
