Life and register readings
Mustafa Behçet Efendi was born in Giresun in 1852/53 (AH 1269). Work began in Giresun in 1880/81, at about 28, on a first salary of 800 kuruş. The annual lists begin in 1880/81, with Mustafa Behçet as a tithe official (Aşar Memuru) in Giresun, the birthplace. At the same time, from 1882 to 1893, the lists also place Mustafa Behçet in Giresun as tuz ambarı kantarcısı. The last entry, for 1893/94, names Mustafa Behçet as an official (Memur), with no place.
The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 800 kuruş a month in 1880/81, as Aşar Memuru in Giresun, when 77 per cent of paid officials earned less. That salary was paid for a single year, and the next list gives 200 kuruş. Over 13 years pay ended below where it began, 90 kuruş against 800. The last annual entry is for 1893/94.
