district master Fur Trade, Hist.
See 1937 quote.
- 1821  (1938)  The proposition I made . . . was 120 p. annum for 3 Years with all the privileges of a District Master.
- 1937  In 1814-19 "district masters" first appear on record, this being the rank next to Chief Factor; evidently corresponding approximately to the more important of the old "masters," though apparently with widened powers and higher pay, since a few of them received the same salary as a Chief Factor.
