Life and register readings

İkyo Yadi Efendi was born in Kayseri in 1860/61 (AH 1277) into the Hristiyan community; the father's occupation was "Ticaret Mahkemesi üyesi". The first salary was 350 kuruş a month. The annual lists begin in 1892/93, with İkyo Yadi as Matbuat-ı Dâhiliye Kalemi dördüncü derece tercümanı and no place named.

Pay rose from 150 kuruş a month in 1893/94 to a peak of 2,000 in 1898/99, when 93 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, six years of salary come to 68,400 kuruş, 2.3 times what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1898/99.
