(headw1)	RONIN  (unkown as to the style it is written)
(english1)	Masterless Samurai
(reference)	In japan they were known as masterless Samurai who banded together to form armies of mercenaries for hire and I am uncertain if they had still adhered to the Samurai code of Bushido once doing so.
(comment)	I was intrigued when I had a chance to read James Clavell novel entitled "Shogun" some years ago, and am finding the time now to investigate a little further.  I am hoping to find the correct Kanji for the word.  Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this matter.
