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.
Although written Coton on the manifest, the departure port is believed to
be Colon, which is Aspinwall and where the Captain is from.
7 Occupation is listed as Inc. which the transcriber feels that it means insurance.
