Transcriber's notes:

Passengers were not numbered on the original manifest.

There were no deaths noted so I've eliminated the Death column.

? represents letters or words that could not be read accurately.

Passengers 139 through 141 were listed together as the last 
entry. The entry was written as follows: and 3 US Consul Men.

The following notes are listed by passenger number:

  2 P. ?orsey - The top part of the letter in question is 
    invisible but it looks like the name may be Dorsey.  
    The age is also too faint to recognize.
  3 F. Danton - The age is either 40 or 46.
 13 and Infant - On the original manifest, this infant is listed 
    on the same line with passenger 12. 
 16 Miss E. Man?e - The letter in question may actually be two 
    letters.  The name could be Mange, Mantje, or Mantze.
 17 H.L. Pink????? - Many of the letters look alike and run together, 
    making it very hard to decipher.  There are no apparent loops in 
    most of the letters so it's hard to distinguish between E and I 
    or O. The third letter in question is either L or T. The name may 
    be Pinkerten.
 34 through 36 M?chell - The name is either Machell or Muchell.
 37 E. Boot? - The name is either Booth or Bootl.
 43 S.W. S????? - This area on the film is very faint.  The last 
    letter in question looks like it might be Y and none of the 
    other letters appear to fall below or extend high above the line.
 44 ?.C. Ro?er - The first initial is either A or H.  The letter in 
    question in the surname is too faint to recognize.
 45 Mrs. Ro??? - Very faint name, making it impossible to decipher.
 46 ?.?. Perkin - The two initials are almost completely invisible.
 48 Suz?? Perkin - The letters in question don't fall below or extend 
    high above the line.  The name may be Suzie.
 49 John Perkin - There is a vertical mark in front of the 2 in 
    the age column but it may just be a stray mark.
 63 Juan Oreze? - The letter in question doesn't fall below or 
    extend high above the line and may be N.
 64 Manuel Friguer? - The name is either Friguern or Friguero.
 72 Rachael Marguy - Her age is either 6 or 8.
 74 E??z Nuldy - The letters in question are partially covered by 
    the lower legs of letters in the name above hers.  These two 
    letters don't fall below or extend high above the line.  The name 
    may be Eniz.
 75 and 76 Sothe?? - The name is either Sothen or Sothers.
 80 J.J. T??tle - The name is either Tintle or Turtle.
 87 R. Gre?? - The name is either Greene or Gruen.
 97 Do????? Guerrera - Most of the letters in question look alike 
    and could be M, N, I, or E.  The fourth letter in question is 
    either J or Y.
 99 C. Sae??er - The last of the two letters in question has a lower 
    leg that falls below the line and could be Z.  The letter preceeding 
    it could be N.
100 E. Cane?a - This letter has a lower leg that falls below the line 
    as a G, J, or Y.
102 M. Valesque? - There appears to be a letter following the E in 
    the surname but it's too faint to recognize. 
104 J.H. ??aje - Very faint name but I think the first letter 
    may be D.
107 M.?. Morgan - The letter in question is either N or V.
110 S. Castell? - The name is either Castello or Castellr.
112 D. Cain - His age is either 30 or 50.
116 Walter Roe?e - The name is either Roene or Roere.
118 G?r Davidson - The given name is either Gar or Gor.
124 Michael Lad?n - The name is either Laden or Ladin.
127 J. T??hill - The name is either Tinhill or Tuehill.
137 J.A. Kra?m? - The first letter in question is either E or I and 
    the last letter is either S or just a stray mark.
