to ECHIZEN MATSUOKA. Worked for them until the fall of
their house from NOBUNAGA SEIBATSU.       ICHIJO-ga-DANI was the ASAKURA castle of the above        NORIKAGE and handed now to ASAKURA YOSHIKAGE, who had        defied the call against the sitting ASHIKAGA SHOGUN,        YOSHITERU by his brother, YOSHIAKI. NOBUNAGA successfully       accepted the task, and afterwards obliged YOSHIKAGE's        appearance to the KYOTO capitol. YOSHIKAGE refused.        Joining with the ASAI, a stand was made and finally        broken on the banks of the ANEGAWA River. The        intervention of Emperor OGIMACHI gave a temporary        reprieve, but YOSHIKAGE was destined for SEPPUKU in his       family's hall, ICHIJO-ga-DANI Castle, TEN-SHO 1573.        ECHIZEN was given to ODA's vassal, SHIBATA KATSUIYE, but       KANENORI and his following smith line would continue in       ECHIZEN into the SHINTO  -  spreading to ETCHU, KAGA and       ECHIGO.        He held to his teachers' (SEKI KANENORI style of
