Life and register readings

The life of Musa Necati Efendi began in Shkodër (İşkodra) in 1860/61 (AH 1277); the father's occupation was "Askerî zabtiye yüzbaşısı". At about 24, in 1884/85, Musa Necati began work in Shkodër, on a first salary of 250 kuruş. From the first annual entry, for 1884/85, to 1892/93, every annual entry places Musa Necati in the same post, Düyûn-ı Umûmiye Müdürlüğü tuz ambarı memuru, in Shkodër, the birthplace.

Pay rose from 250 kuruş a month in 1884/85 to a peak of 350 in 1892/93, in Shkodër, when 38 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over nine years the salaries add up to 31,800 kuruş, 73 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1892/93.
