Life and register readings

Mustafa Kamil Efendi was born in Kemah. Work began in Ankara in 1905/06 (AH 1323), on a first salary of 100 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1905/06, places Mustafa Kamil in Ankara as Ziraat Bankası memuru, where the entries run to 1908/09. At the same time, from 1908/09, the lists also place Mustafa Kamil in a post with no place named as Ziraat Bankası memuru.

The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 100 kuruş a month in 1905/06, in Ankara, when 5 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, four years of salary come to 4,800 kuruş, 22 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1908/09.
