Description | The salary of the vaccination official of the Sanjak of Jerusalem has been entrusted to the sanjak municipal offices to be taken from the municipal office of the kaza where he is located. The vaccination official is now in Gaza, so even though he has requested the salaries he earned from the beginning of January of 1313 (13 January 1897) until the end of February (12 March 1898) from the municipal office there, he complains that a hesitation is shown in their payment. Hence, it is appropriate to notify the Kaymakamlık of Gaza regarding the immediate payment of salaries accrued until the end of February of that year and prescribing him to come to Jaffa. The 3rd of Mârt (1)314 (15th of March 1898). [6 signatures] |
