Life and register readings

Mustafa Sabri Efendi was born in Gjilan (Gilan) in 1886/87 (AH 1304); the father was an attorney (dava vekili). The first annual entry, for 1904/05, names Mustafa Sabri as Kosova Vilayeti Muhasebesi merkez kâtibi yardımcısı, with no place.

Pay rose from 105 kuruş a month in 1904/05 to a peak of 500 in 1910/11, when 44 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, six years of salary come to 24,660 kuruş, 73 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1910/11.

Places in order of time

Each number is a stop: the birthplace, the place of first work, then every place of the annual entries in turn. The year beside an arrow is the first entry at the new place.
