Life and register readings

The life of Süleyman Faik Efendi began in Pristina (Priştine) in 1861/62 (AH 1278). At about 19, in 1880/81, Süleyman Faik began work. The annual lists begin in 1880/81, with Süleyman Faik as Bidayet Mahkemesi kalemi stajyeri and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1903 to 1908 give a second post, in Gusinje as Bidayet Mahkemesi savcı yardımcısı. Alongside, the lists for 1907 to 1910 give a second post, in Trgovište as Bidayet Mahkemesi savcı yardımcısı. Alongside, the lists for 1909/10 give a second post, in Gusinje as Bidayet Mahkemesi savcı yardımcısı. Alongside, the lists for 1909 to 1911 give a second post, in Bijelo Polje as Bidayet Mahkemesi ceza dairesi başkanı. Alongside, the lists for 1910 to 1911 give a second post, in Boğazlıyan as Bidayet Mahkemesi ceza dairesi başkanı. Alongside, the lists for 1911 give a second post, in Peja as Bidayet Mahkemesi ceza dairesi başkanı. Alongside, the lists for 1911 give a second post, in Gjilan as Bidayet Mahkemesi ceza dairesi başkanı. Six places on two continents in all, a number reached by fewer than 8 per cent of the 6,605 officials with a place of service.

The salary went from 300 kuruş a month in 1881/82 to 1,200 in 1909/10, the peak, in Bijelo Polje, when three in four paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1911.
