Life and register readings
The life of Mehmet Lütfü Efendi began in Bijelo Polje (Akova) in 1878 (AH 1295); the father's occupation was "Zabıta memuru". At about 17, in 1895/96, Mehmet Lütfü began work in Bijelo Polje. The annual lists begin in 1895/96, with Mehmet Lütfü as Nüfus birimi stajyeri in Bijelo Polje, the birthplace, where the entries run to 1900/01. The lists have no entry for 1896 to 1899 and 1901 to 1903. Alongside, the lists for 1899 to 1904 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Görevin sona ermesi.
The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 120 kuruş a month in 1899/1900, in Bijelo Polje, when 6 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, three years of salary come to 3,312 kuruş, 22 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1903/04.
