The following record was obtained from the Minnesota Historical Society Archives, St. Paul Union Depot Company Records, 1879-1982. The record lists the employee's name and occupation, the number of days or months of employment (Time), the monthly or daily rate of pay (Rate), the amount the employee was paid for the month (Amount). The signature of the employee is given if it differed from the name as written by the payroll clerk. Also, Time Check is noted in place of the signature in some cases. It is believed that this meant the employee left before the end of the month and had been paid at the time of employment termination. Employee Occupation Time Rate Amount Signature General Office C.
