Homer, Master of the Ship Time do solemnly, sincerely, and truly swear that the following List or Manifest subscribed by me, and now delivered by me to the Collector of the Customs of the Collection District of New York, is a full and perfect list of all the passengers taken on board of the said Ship Time at Rotterdam from which port said Ship has now arrived; and that on said list is truly designated the age, the sex, and the occupation of each of said passengers, the part of the vessel occupied by each during the passage, the country to which each belongs, and also the country of which it is intended to become an inhabitant; and that said List or Manifest truly sets forth the number of said passengers who have died on said voyage, and the names and ages of those who died. So help me God. T.B.Homer (signature).

Transcriber's Notes:

*  An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not
   the transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information
   in the transcriber's notes.

*  The column entitled "Occupation" has been eliminated because there were no
   occupations recorded on the passenger list.

*  The country in which they intend to become inhabitants. (The Captain entered
   "Natherlands" in this column for each passenger ... no doubt, he should have
   entered "U.S.A."). Note that the captain's spelling is: "Natherlands"

*  There were no births or deaths recorded during this voyage, so that column
   has been eliminated.


Passenger Notes:

#2-#6 - The hand writing for these surnames is most difficult to transcribe ...
        it could be Veer or Seer or Vler or Sler
