Life and register readings

Süleyman Şükrü Efendi was born in Pljevlja (Taşlıca). Work began in Pljevlja in 1879/80 (AH 1297). Every annual entry from 1879/80 to 1891/92 places Süleyman Şükrü in the same post, Bidayet Mahkemesi Ceza Dairesi zabıt kâtibi, in Pljevlja, the birthplace. In place of a title the lists give Infisal for 1880/81 and Azil (dismissal) for 1891/92.

The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 300 kuruş a month in 1879/80, in Pljevlja, when 27 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over 13 years pay ended below where it began, 250 kuruş against 300. In all, 13 years of salary come to 40,200 kuruş, 64 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1891/92.
