The salary went from 225 kuruş a month in 1882/83 to 250 in 1892/93, the peak, in Edirne, when 21 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, 11 years of salary come to 29,100 kuruş, 55 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1892/93.
