The Letter from Koshigoe (腰越状, Koshigoe-jō) is a message allegedly dictated by Minamoto no Yoshitsune to his retainer Benkei on June 23, 1185 [1] and addressed to his brother, first Kamakura shogun Yoritomo. The letter was the first sign of a feud between brothers that would end with Yoshitsune's destruction[2].
