Transcriber's Notes:     

* #12 by his name this note: "born 27th Dec 1849."
* #16 age probably 26.
* #27 perhaps surname could be Perkinson, though clearly written Percason.
* #32 England written in country column, but very lightly, as if it could have      
  been erased. He may have been from Ireland as previous passengers were.
* #33 surname probably Spink.
* #50 damage around this area, but first number looks like 3.  For occupation, 
  seems to begin with f, then 3 more letters before cutter.
