[edit]DescriptionA letter of Osman Hamdi Bey (12965199854).jpg |
English: A letter from Osman Hamdi Bey to the Ottoman Bank’s general manager Morgan Hugh Foster, requesting a cash advance of 150 liras (Thursday, June 25, 1883) “Dear friend, You will find enclosed my salary vouchers for this month and July. They represent hundred and eighty liras, half of which will be paid at the end of June and the other half in July to the Directorate of Mines. I am in great need of cash because of my daughter’s wedding. Setting up the home, preparing the trousseau and gifts, etc. have drained me out and it is not over yet. Therefore, I would like an advance of a hundred and fifty liras insured by my two months’ salary. Who else can I turn to? If possible, dear friend, I would be grateful if you could arrange for this modest sum to be paid to me. I would have visited you personally, but as the small ceremony will be held next Sunday, I don’t even have a minute to myself. Trusting your help I shake your hands with affection.” |
