Life and register readings
The life of Süleyman Servet Efendi began in Antakya in 1871/72 (AH 1288). At about 14, in 1884/85, Süleyman Servet began work in Antakya. The first annual entry, for 1884/85, names Süleyman Servet as stajyer, with no place. For 1885 to 1892 the lists have no entry. The annual lists then follow Süleyman Servet to Belen in 1893/94 and Idlib in 1897/98, then back to Antakya, the birthplace, from 1898 to 1902. The lists have no entry for 1894 to 1897. Alongside, the lists for 1901/02 give a second post, in a post with no place named as heyet-i mümeyyize imtihanı (âlâ). Alongside, the lists for 1901 to 1903 give a second post, in Zor as Bidayet Mahkemesi müstantığı. Alongside, the lists for 1902/03 give a second post, in Cebeli bereket as müstantık. The last posts were in Adana and Basra from 1903 to 1910 and Midyat in 1910/11. For 1904 to 1907 the lists have no entry. Eight places in all, a number reached by fewer than 4 per cent of the 6,605 officials with a place of service.
Pay rose from 225 kuruş a month in 1892/93 to a peak of 1,200 in 1910/11, in Midyat, when 76 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1910/11.
