Hannah Riddell
In 1934, Nakakaneku, who was under the influence of Keisai Aoki came to Miyako and Iesaka and Nakakaneku became friends. In 1935, 7 patients were baptized through Kanji Otobe who came from the church of Hannah Riddell. On April 25, 1935, an organization, "Yomigaeri No Kai", was formed with 20 Christians and 30 people interested in his religion. This church outlived the war. He was popular with the patients since barbed wire fences and a special prison were not built.
