Devastation at the west end of Miyuki Bridge (Close-up)

People suffering burns received dabs of transformer oil brought from the nearby Hiroshima Electric Railway. The girl in the foreground, wearing a sailorstyle uniform with a triangular collar, and the girl to her left were second-year students at Hiroshima Girls' Commercial School (then 13 years old) who experienced the atomic bombing at the Hiroshima Postal Savings Bureau in Senda-machi 1-chome, where they were mobilized to work, but survived. The boy second to the right of the police officer from the Ujina Police Station was a first-year student at Hiroshima Municipal Junior High School (then 12 years old) who experienced the atomic bombing in Koami-cho (now part of Naka Ward), where he was helping to demolish buildings to create fire lanes. It is believed he was on his way to his home in Danbarasuehiro-cho (now Danbara in Minami Ward), where he lived with his parents. He went missing and his remains were never found.

A chrysanthemum fair

A chrysanthemum fair

The beautiful chrysanthemum garden in autumn at Dangozaka in Komagome (today the slope is located between Sendagi 1-chome and 2-chome). Each gardening shop made its own presentation of a tasteful chrysanthemum garden. Chrysanthemum dolls were also an attraction.
