Life#
Mustafa Hulusi Efendi was born in Antalya in 1856/57 (AH 1273). The record gives the community as Muslim (Müslüman), the nationality as Turkish and the father's occupation as Tuccar.
Schooling recorded: Rüşdiye Mektebi, with 7 years of schooling recorded. The record marks no qualification (diploma, certificate, training or decoration). Languages recorded, with the skill words of the record: Turkish, with Kitabet.
First work is recorded in Izmir (İzmir) in 1874/75 (AH 1291): Telgraf. The official was then about 17 years old. The record gives 1 year of unpaid apprenticeship (mülazemet) before the first salary. The first-salary field gives 150 kuruş a month. At the first annual entry, in 1875/76, the official was about 18 years old.
The first annual entry, for 1875/76, shows Mukayyit in Izmir, with 150 kuruş a month. In 1876/77 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Nazilli, the salary going from 150 to 400 kuruş a month (before: Mukayyit in Izmir). In 1880/81 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Bozdoğan, the salary going from 380 to 500 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Nazilli). In 1885/86 the record shows no title (before: Muhabere Memuru in Bozdoğan).
The highest salary, 500 kuruş a month, is first recorded in 1880/81 as Muhabere Memuru. 47 per cent of the other officials with a recorded salary that year earned less. The median salary of all officials that year was 500 kuruş. Over 11 years with a salary the median is 400 kuruş a month, with 2 rises and 1 cut. The largest rise, 250 kuruş, is seen in 1876/77. From the first salary to the last the salary grew by 12.79 per cent a year on average. The last salary is recorded in 1884/85, when 42 per cent of the other officials with a recorded salary that year earned less.
A death is recorded under 1896/97 (AH 1314): the year of the annual list that holds the status word Vefat, not a date of death.
