The Canadian Scot (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Canadian Scot

Complete sovereignty over a vast and undefined country was thus given to the Company. The regions known as Rupert's Land, whose rivers and streams flowed into Hudson Bay, came under their sole dominion. They had undisputed authority over an area comprising more than a million square miles, and could declare and make war upon any of the aboriginal inhabitants. The original capital of the Company was only divided into 34 shares of £300 each. The Prince received one share as a bonus, he having graciously signified his acceptance thereof. We may infer that the share in question was, in latter - day parlance, fully paid up for His Highness received credit for £300 according to an entry in the Company's Minutes. He was also presented with a liberal sum in cash for expenses in connection with the issue of the charter whence it may be inferred that the dashing and debonair com mander on land and sea, whose exploits so many strove to emulate.
