Grave of Korekiyo Takahashi

It is in a very good location. There is also a cemetery under Saionji Kobokaku and a cemetery of Marshal Yamamoto. It looks like a grave that has been cleaned and cherished. The photo has been reversed, but it looks like the gravestone is backlit.

The life of Koreyoshi Takahashi was turbulent. When I was studying in the US, I was sold to a slave by mistake. After returning to Japan, after teaching English, he became an officer of the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce and was promoted to become the Director of the Patent Bureau. It was However, I failed to do this and returned to Japan without any notice. At that time, Koichiro Kawada, who was then the third president of the Bank of Japan, spoke to him and was hired as the "architect chief" of the main building of the Bank of Japan, which was under construction. He was recognized for his skill, and the following year, he was appointed as the first manager of the "Western Branch", which is under the control of Kyushu. After that, in the era of Vice President, he succeeded in recruiting foreign bonds to raise war expenses for the Russo-Japanese War and became president in 1911 (Meiji 44). After serving as president for one year and eight months, he spent a lot of time in politics, playing the prime minister once and the finance minister seven times (one of them also serves as the prime minister). In the year's "2.26 Incident", he fell victim to an army youth officer's bombshell and ended his life in turmoil.
