The collection comprises correspondence between leading members of the hetmanite movement who went on to establish the Ukrainian Union of Agrarians-Statists (USKhD), an émigré conservative monarchist organization founded in Vienna in 1920. These members include Pavlo Skoropadskyi, former hetman of the Ukrainian state and leader of the hetmanite movement; Oleksandr Skoropys-Ioltukhovskyi, a former member of the Hetman's government in the Kholm region and Podlachia; Volodymyr Zalozetskyi, head of the Ukrainian National party in Bukovina; Mykola Kochubei; and the organizations founder, leader, and ideologue Viacheslav Lypynskyi. Much of the correspondence relates to political disagreements between Lypynskyi and Skoropadskyi which led to the dissolution of the Ukrainian Union of Agrarians-Statists in 1930.
