Life and register readings
The life of Musa Kazım Efendi began in Kilis in 1855/56 (AH 1272); the father's occupation was "Kilis kazası tapu kâtibi". At about 48, in 1903/04, Musa Kazım began work, on a first salary of 400 kuruş. Fewer than 1 per cent of the 5,664 officials whose age at first work is known began work at 48 or older. The annual lists begin in 1903/04, with Musa Kazım as Tahsilat müfettişi and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1905 to 1907 give a second post, in Belen as Tahsilat müfettişi.
The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 400 kuruş a month in 1903/04, when 43 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1907/08.
