Matt E. Mason Papers
Manuscripts
The papers in the collection chronicle Matt E. Mason's rise in the business world in the upper Midwest and span about forty years. The Diaries series is arranged chronologically and consists of holographic account books and diaries kept by Mason between the years 1874-1882. The entries are written during Mason's time in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and North Dakota. The entries describe his day-to-day activities and include an account of his search for better employment opportunities, the type of weather conditions he encountered, shopping, news of friends, and his expenditures. The Legal Documents series is arranged alphabetically and includes such items as financial records, checks written and received by Mason, indentures relating to the purchasing and selling of land, and receipts/agreements made by Mason and the Gregory, Jennison & Company. The Photographs series (ca. 1900s) is arranged alphabetically and includes images of what appears to be the Mason Bros. store, both inside and outside, a picture of men working in a field presumably plowing for wheat, the Sumner & Morse Carriage factory, the Valley City Cornet Band, and two photographs of unidentified men. The Oversize series contains one rolled item, the military commission issued to Edwin K. Mason (Matt's son) for First Lieutenant of the North Dakota National Guard. The document is dated January 14, 1915 and is signed by North Dakota's Governor, L.B. Hanna.
