Smallpox Jizo and the monument of virtue.
To the lower right of the Jizo statue is a monument commemorating the forgiveness of four neighboring villages' debts made before 1428. This is the only monument in Japan left by the people and is of great historical value as a debt forgiveness resulting from an uprising.
