Description | Notwithstanding the fact that the petitioner is indeed poor and has to be allotted a salary to reduce her needs, it is difficult at the moment to allot something from our council’s fund. It has been thus understood that a monthly pension of White Mejidie has been allotted to her from the Goods’ Fund after the said woman’s late husband’s disassociation from the Municipal Police Force. It is thus appropriate to relegate the matter to the Municipal Police Force and the Sanjak Administrative Council so as to deal with the issue of allot the said salary to his wife. The 7th of Nîsân (1)314 (19th of April 1898). [6 signatures] |
