Life and register readings

İbrahim Ethem Efendi was born in Kütahya in 1867/68 (AH 1284). Work began in Kütahya in 1885/86, at about 18. The first annual entry, for 1885/86, places İbrahim Ethem in Kütahya, the birthplace, as Bidayet Mahkemesi Kalemi mülazımı, where the entries run to 1894/95. Alongside, the lists for 1894 to 1896 give a second post, in Uşak as Ticaret Mahkemesi ikinci kâtibi.

The salary went from 250 kuruş a month in 1894/95 to 300 in 1895/96, the peak, in Uşak, when 27 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1895/96.
