My dad was a trapper in Northern Saskatchewan in about 1932. That winter he managed to make his "grubstake".

I have a copy of a snapshot of him in front of his cabin, holding his 1894 rifle, .32 Special with "ski-jump" backsight.

It could also include the spoils of victory, maybe

[GunClick Rick]

If your grubstake was spoiled and you found yourself at the doctors

In the case of this Movie, the term "found" refers to the price of the "trade goods" required to buy or other wise get/trade the white captives back.
(It does not include trading repeating rifles to the Indians)

FWIW, "board" IS meals . . . "board & room" means a room with meals included.
