I read the rather idiosyｎcratic calligraphy,
道至以天　The Path (Tao) reaches to Heaven
I can neither read the signature nor the seal imprints.
Signature beginns "五"　
The attached slip reads,
忠孝両道　The Two Paths of Loyalty and Filial Piety
Someone may have misread the caligraphy in this way ?
Left: 横　　　　　　Right: Shōda (Seal)

With regards,
I.Nagy

Thanks so very much I. Nagy for your precious time and kind help on the meaning of the calligraphy 🙏❤️🙏
(Knowing the family background in which the calligraphy came from and has been passing down, my guess is that the top footnote might be their principle belief / elaboration / interpretation of the writing)
