Life#
Süleyman Hayri Efendi was born in Beyobasi in 1873/74 (AH 1290). The record gives the community as Muslim (Müslüman), the nationality as Turkish and the father's occupation as Telgraf Muduru.
Schooling recorded: Rüşdiye Mektebi, with 7 years of schooling recorded. The record marks a qualification: a diploma, certificate, training or decoration (nişan). Languages recorded, with the skill words of the record: Turkish, with Kitabet.
First work is recorded in Dinek in 1890/91 (AH 1308). The official was then about 17 years old. The record gives 3 years of unpaid apprenticeship (mülazemet) before the first salary. The first-salary field gives 400 kuruş a month. At the first annual entry, in 1893/94, the official was about 20 years old.
The first annual entry, for 1893/94, shows Muhabere Memuru in Kırşehir, with 400 kuruş a month. In 1896/97 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Ioannina (Yanya), the salary going from 400 to 300 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Kırşehir). In 1899/1900 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Erzurum, the salary going from 300 to 320 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Ioannina). In 1900/01 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Samsun, the salary going from 320 to 380 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Erzurum). No annual entry is recorded for 1895/96 and 1898/99.
The highest salary, 400 kuruş a month, is first recorded in 1893/94 as Muhabere Memuru. 30 per cent of the other officials with a recorded salary that year earned less. The median salary of all officials that year was 500 kuruş. Over 7 years with a salary the median is 380 kuruş a month, with 2 rises and 1 cut. The largest rise, 60 kuruş, is seen in 1900/01. From the first salary to the last the salary fell by 0.64 per cent a year on average. The last salary is recorded in 1901/02, when 29 per cent of the other officials with a recorded salary that year earned less.
A death is recorded under 1902/03 (AH 1320): the year of the annual list that holds the status word Vefat, not a date of death.
