Description | The tax farmers have shown that the majority of shop owners, Muslims, Christians and Jews, have moved and changed the location of their shops. Therefore, tax collections have become difficult. In order to conduct an inspection (bûqala) of the above mentioned shops, and charge shops the appropriate tax, one of us the respectable Nâjî Effendi and Yâshû‘â Effendi have been elected. In order to obtain approval, this decision was taken on the 7th of Huzayrân (1)317 (20th of June 1901). [3 signatures] |
