Life and register readings

Mehmed Emin Efendi was born in Komotini (Gümülcine) in 1879/80 (AH 1297). Work began in Komotini in 1897/98, at about 17. Every annual entry from 1897/98 to 1908/09 places Mehmed Emin in the same post, Sancak Muhasebe Kalemi mülazımı, in Komotini, the birthplace.

The salary went from 30 kuruş a month in 1898/99 to 300 in 1908/09, the peak, in Komotini, when one in three paid officials earned less. Over 11 years the salaries add up to 24,240 kuruş, 44 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1908/09.
