Life and register readings
The life of İsmail Hakkı Paşa began in Kars. The first salary was 1,200 kuruş a month. The annual lists begin in 1837/38 (AH 1253), with İsmail Hakkı as Redif Binbaşısı and no place named. For 1838 to 1868 the lists have no entry. The annual lists then follow İsmail Hakkı to Diyarbakır in 1868/69 and Bitola in 1876/77. The lists have no entry for 1869 to 1876 and 1877 to 1878. Alongside, the lists for 1876/77 give a second post, in Erzurum as Vali. İsmail Hakkı then moved to Istanbul in 1878/79. The last entry, for 1879/80, names İsmail Hakkı as Asker Teftiş Komisyonu Başkanı, with no place. Few careers in the lists are as long; fewer than 3 per cent of the 8,239 officials have entries spanning 45 years or more. The farthest post, Bitola, lay about 1,850 km from Kars, and fewer than 5 per cent of the 5,339 officials with a known birthplace and place of service served as far from the birthplace.
The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 31,000 kuruş a month in 1868/69, as Vali in Diyarbakır, when 99 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over four years the salaries add up to 1,032,000 kuruş, 50.7 times what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1879/80.
