This is an order issued by Kaga Domain to each post town in the domain territory, including Nonoichi, in 1615. It announced the requirement for official permission to engage horses and handlers, and included the admonition that violators would be arrested. The purpose was to limit the use of horses and handlers across post towns to make up for the shortage of both in Kaga region due to the Battle of Osaka.
The issuance of this document led to the establishment of the post town system in Kaga Domain.
