Generale has an acute accent above the first and second e.
It also says The Passenger Act 1882 just before district and port.
??? There is a tear or smudge on the manifest, but this word is
probably District .
* SS was written S/S both times on the manifest.
* Le Havre was written with a line above the a in both instances.
??? There is a tear or smudge on the manifest, but the missing word is
probably the.
? There is a tear or smudge on the manifest, but the missing letter
is probably d -- dates.
? There is a tear or smudge on the manifest, but the missing letter
is probably a -- alien.
? Part of a typed letter is missing in this word, but it is probably

Destination ou localite auxquelles ils ont l'intention de se rendre,
Emplacement du Compartiment ou espace occupe, Nombre de colis Bagages,
De passage, ou en transit, ou Projetant un sefour prolonge, Date et cause
de la mort.

through 142 were in Second Class. To conserve space, the transcriber
has eliminated the Location of Compartment or space occupied column,
and listed the designations as headings.

has been eliminated.
