- Annual Report: stating that River Desert Reserve is owned by Algonquins and Tetes-de-Boules Tribes. They practiced agriculture on their reserve, worked for wages in the lumber industry; the "Tete-de-Boule portion of the community do not pay so much attention to farming as the Algonquins. The former live chiefly by the chase; a few of them, however, work for lumbermen." Population of reserve is 410. The Algonquins occupied another reserve at Lake Temiscarningue, supporting themselves by fishing, hunting, and commercial trapping. The population of reserve is 136.
