Supported passage

Broom traces intertwined roles for Masataka Taketsuru, Shinjiro Torii, Settsu Shozu, and Kijiro Iwai rather than a single-origin story.

Attribution and limits

Useful historical research lead, not a verified chronology. The passage prints 1920 for Taketsuru's dispatch to Scotland, conflicting with the book's December 1918 Glasgow arrival account (Movies capture sheet 314). Names, company events and family connections need primary corroboration before publication.
