20 See, for example, Ohara, Uchimura no shōgai, 278–279. Masaike Megumu actually discusses her case to a greater degree in his book and concludes that while this incident is plausible, Motoko's name does not appear in the Uchimura family registry. The standard listing of Uchimura's wives is Take (divorced, 1884), Kazuko (died of illness, 1891), and Shizuko (lived until 1945).
