Life and register readings
Zekeriya Sabri Efendi was born in Ohrid (Ohri). Work began in 1898/99 (AH 1316). The first annual entry, for 1898/99, names Zekeriya Sabri as Stajyer, with no place. For 1899 to 1902 the lists have no entry. Zekeriya Sabri then moved to Prilep in 1902/03. Alongside, the lists for 1902 to 1906 give a second post, in Bitola as Bidayet Mahkemesi Zabıt Kâtibi. The last posts were in Thessaloniki in 1907/08 and Istanbul in 1909/10.
Pay rose from 300 kuruş a month in 1902/03 to a peak of 1,500 in 1909/10, in Istanbul, when four in five paid officials earned less. Over six years the salaries add up to 50,400 kuruş, 1.6 times what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1909/10.
