AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This document, by a Hudson's Bay Company factor, is mainly concerned with the ownership and use of the family hunting territory. A good deal of information is also given on the Indians' attitude toward conservation of the animal redocuments on their territory. Included is a list of individual hunting grounds and their owners in the Peribonca region, and some discussion of inheritance patterns and burial customs.
