Re: Can anyone tell me what this Japanese writing says?

I believe the characters in the right-hand stack are 水林堂 (Shui Lin Tang), possibly read as 'Hall of Rivers and Forests', though shui is literally water. There is a Shuilin Township in Yunlin County, Taiwan, though I can't say if that information is at all relevant. I found Shui-lin Tang (same characters) on a list of Catholic organizations in Chiayi Municipality, Taiwan.

Best regards,

Bill H.
