I at first resolved to classify the memoranda under the headings of a course of twelve lectures on Japan given before the Lowell Institute of Boston in the winter of 1881 - 82. These were as follows: 1. Country, people, language. 2. Traits of the people. 3. Houses, food, toilet. 4. Homes and their surroundings. 5. Children, toys, games. 6. Temples, theatres, music. 7. City life and health matters. 8. Country life and natural scenery. 9. Educational matters and students. 10. Industrial occupations. 11. Ceramic and pictorial art. 12. Antiquities.
