Life and register readings
Salih Vahid Efendi was born in Bosna. The annual lists begin in 1895/96 (AH 1313), with Salih Vahid as Bidayet Mahkemesi harcırah tahsildarı in Kula. Next came Kırkağaç and Tuna from 1906 to 1911. The lists have no entry for 1897 to 1899 and 1900 to 1906. Alongside, the lists for 1910 to 1912 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Maliye Nezareti Hesabat Kalemi birinci sınıf kâtibi.
The salary went from 50 kuruş a month in 1906/07 to 2,000 in 1911, the peak, when 81 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over seven years the salaries add up to 82,200 kuruş, 1.7 times what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1911/12.
