The article summarizes observations on a hectographed edition that contains materials from two councils of Old Believer Wanderers (Beguny) that took place in the “Vichugovskaya stranа” in 1912−1913. The councils were directed against A.V. Ryabinin, the leader of the agreement. He was accused of abuse of power, the establishment of a mill and trade. Three copies of this hectographed edition are known. Comparison of copies of the edition allowed us to make a number of observations about the work on the edition. The compiler of the collection of materials of the councils and its publisher was M.I. Zalessky. The hectographed edition contains a large and interesting material on the history of the Wanderer’s confession. The hectographed edition is described in detail based on the copy of the Sverdlovsk Regional Museum of Local History named after O.E. Cler. A detailed list of the composition of the collection of materials of the cathedrals is given.
