Transcriber's Notes:     
  #13,#14,#15. The manifest is in such bad condition that the *'s denote 
   information that is unreadable.
  #15-#21.  The * in the column, where they were from, means that the country
   was ditto marked and I can't read the the original country.
  # 15  There is a hole in the manifest at this point.
  #16-#21  The writting is so bad I just can't make it out, besides the 
   condition of the manifest.
