Life and register readings

Raşid Bey was born in Shkodër (İşkodra) in 1863/64 (AH 1280). At about 16, in 1878/79, Raşid began work in Shkodër. From the first annual entry, for 1878/79, to 1894/95, every annual entry places Raşid in the same post, İşkodra Vilayeti Mektubî Kalemi mülazımı, in Shkodër, the birthplace.

The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 30 kuruş a month in 1881/82, in Shkodër, when fewer than 1 per cent of paid officials earned less. After ten years the salary stood below the first, 25 kuruş against 30. In all, ten years of salary come to 3,360 kuruş, 7 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1894/95.
