New York State Governor Expense Copybooks

Chronological by date; judges' salary lists are chronological by month, then alphabetical by last name of judge.

This series consists of binders containing letterpress copies of lists of payments apparently made or received by the governor's office from 1917-1923. Entries generally provide: date; name of person, company, or state agency; amount; and purpose of payment (e.g. mortgage tax; salary refund; common school fund; state hospitals).

The volumes also contain lists of amounts of interest earned on Canal Fund moneys in banks throughout the state. Each entry on these lists provides name of bank, location (New York, Brooklyn, Buffalo, etc.), and amount of interest earned.

Volume 3 also contains monthly lists of salaries of judges from 1911-1920. Each entry on these lists provides: name of judge; court/location (e.g. Borough Hall; Chambers St. Court; Appellate Division Court House); city; and amount.
