Life and register readings
The life of Şerif Efendi began in Ohrid (Ohri); the father's occupation was "Telgraf Çavuşu". Şerif began work in 1887/88 (AH 1305), on a first salary of 200 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1887/88, names Şerif as Kavaid-i Osmani ve Hüsn-i Hat Muallimi, with no place. The lists have no entry for 1889 to 1891. The last posts were in Debrei bala from 1891 to 1895 and Erzurum in 1896/97. Erzurum, about 1,750 km from Ohrid, was the post farthest from the birthplace; fewer than 5 per cent of the 5,339 officials with a known birthplace and place of service served as far from home.
The salary went from 200 kuruş a month in 1887/88 to 1,200 in 1896/97, the peak, in Erzurum, when 83 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over seven years the salaries add up to 57,600 kuruş, 1.7 times what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1896/97.
