Transcriber's Notes:

*  The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the 
   original recorder or is difficult to read.

?  Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due
   to the condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original
   recorder.

*  There was nothing written for age in mths or Native Country
   so these columns were eliminated.  There were no deaths so 
   this column was eliminated also.

*  The Blg. Officer entered the date as the 14th, not the 15th.
   The ship may have arrived the 14th but passengers 
   disembarked on the 15th.

Passenger #1 - The surname looks like it is Hybub but could also
               be Zybub, Fybub 
Passenger #2 - The initial looks like a W, Z or an N.  The surname
               looks like Wacula but could be Facula, Kacula,
               Zacula, Nacula or Necula
