I considered the photography schedule for Burton photographed of collection of photographs in “THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN, 1891.”, about the Nobi earthquake, and it is following many points that become clear. Burton got on the train from Shimbashi 21:50 on October 28, 1891 when the Nobi earthquake was generated. And he stayed at Nagoya on night of 29th, the following day as it was listed in PLATE I. of “THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN, 1891.”. He left for Biwajima to photograph on 30th, the following day written down in the photograph explanation of “THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN, 1891.”, but he photographed for some days there because weather was bad. Afterwards, he photographed the Owari Cotton Mill in Atsuta and others. He moved from Nagoya to Gifu via Kasamatsu on November 3. On the journey, photographed a temporary hospital by the Empire University in Kuroda and the stricken area of Kasamatsu.
