content: Reports of persons and articles hired in North Carolina by the Bureau are contained in a bound volume and an unbound series. The volume, January 1868–December 1869, and the unbound series, February 1866–April 1869, are arranged by month. They list the name or place, occupation or use, length of service, and rate of pay for persons hired and articles used by the Bureau. The volume for April–December 1869 lists the wages for the Superintendent of Education's immediate staff and the rent paid for schools and their locations. The Superintendent of Education evidently continued to use the volume to register rents and salaries related to his office after the Assistant Commissioner's office was abolished in the spring of 1869.
