In order to begin the construction based on technical inspections, a technical committee was founded and compensated (?). The speed of operations depends on the number of workers and in Medina there are very few workers. Therefore the imperial government has asked for the recruitment of 100 persons from the district of Jerusalem with each person being paid 8 piasters and 60 para daily for each square meter. The transportation costs of those persons would be paid by the financial administration of the railway. Whoever is registered and wants to work until the season of pilgrimage, visit the pure land of Medina and accomplish his pilgrimage, can also have his transportation paid for by the mentioned administration. If anyone gets sick during the work, he will be treated for free, and for those who pass away their families will receive a salary. So whoever wants to go there should contact the municipal department within five days from the date below. And in order for this to be known, these directions were published on the 16th of Kânûn Awwal (1)322 (29th of December 1906).
