This passenger list begins with 18 names. The 19th name has been cut off so as to be unreadable. The list continues after one-half inch of white space with number 54 cut in half and unreadable. The next number is 55 and continues on this first page through a readable 79. Line 80 is cut in half and unreadable. The second page begins with number 40 and continues to the end through 87. The numbers 54 through 80 repeat what appears on the bottom half of the first page. The only indication that these two pages belong together is that the handwriting matches exactly with the first 19 numbers on the first page. Therefore; there are missing numbers 19 through 39. They are not on the listing. The copy of the first 18 names is very bad, causing a great number of ? marks for unreadable characters. This is also the case in lines 40 through 50. 64 A fraction of 1/2 was used in place of giving the month in a whole number. 77 A fraction of 1/2 was used in place of giving the month in a whole number. 85 A fraction of 1/2 was used in place of giving the month in a whole number.
