  Transcriber's Notes:
   This film is very faint and transcription was done while reading from the film -- 
      print copy that I have is often unreadable.
   Captain's middle initial could be "L" or "F"
   The column "Number and Names of Passengers who have died on the Voyage" was
      blank and thus not included in the transcription above.

National Archives and Records Administration, Film M425, Reel 47.
