Life and register readings

The life of İsmail Hakkı Efendi began in Gürün in 1864/65 (AH 1281). Work began in 1881/82, at about 17, on a first salary of 0 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1881/82, places İsmail Hakkı in Ankara as tahrirat mal kalemi mülazımı. Next came Kırşehir from 1882 to 1887. Alongside, the lists for 1886 to 1891 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Nahiye Muduru. The lists give Azil (dismissal) for 1888/89 instead of a title.

Pay rose from 0 kuruş a month in 1881/82 to a peak of 374 in 1888/89, as Nahiye Muduru, when 44 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over ten years the salaries add up to 21,432 kuruş, 44 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1890/91.
