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.

*  There was no information in the column for deaths on the voyage, so that
   column has been eliminated.
