*1673/5/25 The British ship ''[[Return (ship)|Return]]'' sails into [[Nagasaki]] harbor seeking trade; its requests are rejected, and the ship leaves roughly two months later without incident.
*1673/5/27 [[Nagasaki bugyo|Nagasaki ''bugyô'']] [[Okano Sadaaki]] orders [[Kuroda Mitsuyuki]], daimyô of [[Fukuoka han]], to prepare to depart for Nagasaki, to deal with the ''Return''. Later the same night, Okano reverses his orders, commanding Kuroda to remain in Fukuoka, as the ''Return'' was determined to be a non-military vessel, and not a threat.
*1673/6/4 A Dutch ship enters Nagasaki harbor, as part of standard trade routines.
