Transcriber's notes:

*  The passenger numbers written by the original recorder began at
   # 1 at each port where passengers boarded the ship.  For ease 
   in referring to the transcriber's notes the formatter has
   renumbered the list consecutively.

* "Transit" is written over numbers on list 29, 31, 32, and 33.

*  In the heading of section 3, "Arriving at the Port of NIPE.,May 25, 
   1910 is an error"  It should read, Arriving at the Port 
   of New York May 25, 1910
