Life and register readings
MUHAMMED SAİD EFENDİ was born in Basra in 1866/67 (AH 1283); the father was a merchant (tüccar). Work began in Basra in 1878, at about 12. Few began so young; fewer than 3 per cent of the 5,664 officials whose age at first work is known started at 12 or younger. From the first annual entry, for 1878, to 1893/94, every annual entry places MUHAMMED SAİD in the same post, Tahrirat kalemi mülazımı, in Basra, the birthplace.
The salary went from 170 kuruş a month in 1880/81 to 300 in 1881/82, the peak, in Basra, when 28 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over 14 years the salaries add up to 48,840 kuruş, 72 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1893/94.
