Life and register readings

Born in Bursa in 1876/77 (AH 1293), İsmail Hakkı Efendi came from the İslam community; the father's occupation was "İnönü nâhiyesi müdiri sâbık". At about 23, in 1899/1900, İsmail Hakkı began work, on a first salary of 173 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1899/1900, names İsmail Hakkı as merkez hapishânesi kitâbeti, with no place.

The salary went from 173 kuruş a month in 1899/1900 to 480 in 1901/02, the peak, when 53 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, three years of salary come to 9,912 kuruş, 68 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1901/02.
