Life and register readings
The life of Süleyman Said Efendi began in Shkodër (İşkodra) in 1885/86 (AH 1303); the father's occupation was "Polis memuru". At about 16, in 1901/02, Süleyman Said began work in Shkodër. The first annual entry, for 1901/02, places Süleyman Said in Shkodër, the birthplace, as Telgrafhane mülazımı, where the entries run to 1906/07. Alongside, the lists for 1906 to 1908 give a second post, in Gevgelija as Telgraf ve Posta Merkezi memuru. Alongside, the lists for 1907 to 1909 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Telgraf ve Posta Merkezi memuru. Alongside, the lists for 1908/09 give a second post, in Shkodër as Telgraf ve Posta Merkezi muhabere memuru.
The salary went from 250 kuruş a month in 1904/05 to 540 in 1908/09, the peak, when 59 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, five years of salary come to 18,480 kuruş, 71 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1908/09.
