These reports of the Improved Order of Red Men document the activities of the secret fraternity's "tribe" in South Berwick, Maine. The Improved Order of Red Men used Native American rituals, organization, and phrases with each other, which is evident in these reports. The reports primarily provide information about the names of inductees, active members, retirees, and suspended members, but also offer insight into the ways in which the organization functioned.
