Transcriber's Notes:

  The "t" at the end of Brig^t was raised.

  "None" was written in the "Died on the voyage" Column. 

  In the column "The country in which they intend to become inhabitants",
  nothing was written.

  At the top lefthand corner of the Manifest is a picture of some ships and 
  underneath is written: Baker & Godwin, Printers, No. 1 Spruce St., N.Y.

  At the top righthand corner of the Manifest is a picture of a "shield" 
  and inside of it is written: R.J. Godwin, Custom House Broker and Notary 
  Public, No. 18 Pine St., New York.

* Barequella as written on the manifest should probably be 
  Barranquilla, Columbia.
