Transcriber's Notes: 
    
 ??? Last name of deputy collector's signagure has what appears to 
 be an ink blot on last several letters.

 *Passengers #3 through #11 are from China.  Chinese names tend to 
  follow pattern of writing family name before given name, thus 
  Laurie, Quong, Chun & Lung are believed to be surnames on this list.
