Life#
Mustafa Hulusi Efendi was born in Arapgir in 1860/61 (AH 1277). The record gives the community as Muslim (Müslüman), the nationality as Turkish and the father's occupation as Sipahi.
Schooling recorded: Rüşdiye Mektebi, with 7 years of schooling recorded, at a place worded Arapgir. The record marks a qualification: a diploma, certificate, training or decoration (nişan). Languages recorded, with the skill words of the record: Turkish, with Kitabet.
First work is recorded in Arapgir in 1878/79 (AH 1296): Defteri Hakani Kalemi. The official was then about 18 years old. The record gives 4 years of unpaid apprenticeship (mülazemet) before the first salary. The first-salary field gives 50 kuruş a month. At the first annual entry, in 1882/83, the official was about 22 years old.
The first annual entry, for 1882/83, shows Defter-i Hakani Kalemi in Arapgir, with 50 kuruş a month. In 1884/85 the record shows Tapu Kitabeti in Geyve, the salary going from 50 to 300 kuruş a month (before: Defter-i Hakani Kalemi in Arapgir).
