Transcriber's Notes:

*  The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original
   recorder.

?  The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to
   the quality of the original documment.

*  The column for those who have died on board was eliminated as there were
   no deaths recorded.

*  Numbers were added to the manifest to aid in reference to specific
   passengers.

*  Question marks in the sworn statement are letters/words that can't be read
   because the page is smudged.

*  The question mark in the date of the statement, "Sworn to this ? Oct." is a
   large circular mark with several squiggles.


Passenger Notes:

#807 - the first ?s are small letters, possibly "ers", the last ? looks like
       an "f".
#829 - this is a small letter
#830 - the first ? could be an "e" or "i", the second ? an "a" or "s"
#831 - two small letters, looks like "ox"
#847,#848 - looks like a small letter but can't be sure because of the "y"
       above it
#850 - the entry in the column for sex is probably an error as the occupation
       is "wife"
#860 - there is an upstroke and then downstroke that looks like "tz" without
       the "t" crossed
#864 - a small letter, looks like "a" or "n"
#896 - a letter that extends below the line like "g" or "j"
#902 - looks like a single stroke but can't tell because of the "j" above
#903-#907 - possibly a "u" or "n"
#909 - two small letters that look like "ev"
#914 - looks like "e" or "i"
#915 - a small letter that looks like "a" or "u"
#916 - these are all small letters
#927 - all small letters
#944 - two small letters, looks like "or"
#953 - can't discern what these even may be
