十三年，施南宣撫司覃禹鼎以罪改流，於是忠峒土司田光祖等並請歸流，乃以十五土司並原設恩施縣，特設施南府，領六縣。 In the thirteenth year, Qin Yuding of the Shinan Pacification Prefecture was converted to regular administration for a crime; thereupon Tian Guangzu of the Zhongdong native chieftain and others also petitioned for conversion. The fifteen native chieftains together with the existing Enshi County were combined to establish Shinan Prefecture specially, governing six counties.
