In May 1905, Truman quit the National Bank of Commerce and went to work for the Union National Bank. "The Union National [Bank] gave me seventy-five dollars a month to do exactly the same kind of work I was doing at Commerce for sixty dollars," Truman later remembered. (Handwritten manuscript, 1945.) He left the Union National Bank in 1906 to take up a farmer's life on his family's farm near Grandview.
The Union National Bank is located in the 104 New York Life Building at 9th Street and Baltimore Avenue.
