Life and register readings

The life of HÜSEYİN RÜŞDİ BEG began in Kirkuk (Kerkük) in 1866/67 (AH 1283); the father's occupation was "Hadide sancağı muhasebecisi". Work began in Istanbul in 1886/87, at about 20. The first annual entry, for 1886/87, names HÜSEYİN RÜŞDİ BEG as Mülazım (muhasebe kalemi), with no place, with a rise to Masalih-i Cariye Kitabeti Refakati in 1900/01. For 1894 to 1900 the lists have no entry.

Pay rose from 2 kuruş a month in 1888/89 to a peak of 700 in 1908/09, when two in three paid officials earned less. The peak was 350 times the first salary, a rise matched by 8 of the 2,724 officials paid for ten years or more. The last annual entry is for 1908/09.
