Papers written by the Pioneers of Rupert's Land Executive Committee regarding who they were and there claims regarding rights. The Pioneers of Rupert's Land was an advocacy and commemorative organization composed of the white settlers (and some of there descendants) of Rupert's Land who resided there prior to the transfer to Canada in 1870. These papers discuss their scrip claims, and problems with receiving what they regarded as promised to them under the Manitoba and Northwest Territories acts. Includes some discussion of Metis scrip in relation as well.
