Transcriber's Notes:

The country of which all passengers intend to become inhabitants is the 
United States of America, so this column was eliminated. The part of the
vessel inhabited by each passenger during the passage was steerage, so this
column was also eliminated.

There were no births or deaths on this passage.

The use of a * indicates an error or an abbreviation made by the original
recorder. The abbreviations are in the occupation column, where Labr seems
to mean laborer, Spinst seems to mean spinster, Ch seems to mean child, and
inft or inf seems to mean infant.

67 Samuel Cook - America was crossed out in this column, and England was
   written afterwards.
