Life and register readings

İshak Efendi was born in Pristina (Priştine) in 1863/64 (AH 1280). Work began in Pristina in 1882/83, at about 19. The annual lists begin in 1882/83, with İshak as Aşar Kalemi stajyeri in Pristina, the birthplace. At the same time, from 1883 to 1885, the lists also place İshak in a post with no place named as Bidayet Mahkemesi Hukuk Dairesi stajyeri. Alongside, the lists for 1884/85 give a second post, in Vushtrri as Bidayet Mahkemesi müstantik yardımcısı.

The salary went from 200 kuruş a month in 1883/84 to 300 in 1884/85, the peak, in Vushtrri, when 28 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1884/85.
