I, F.W. Ball, Master of the SS Venetian 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 Port of Boston, is a full and perfect list of all the passengers taken on board of the said vessel at Liverpool from which port said Ship has now arrived; and that on said list is truly designated the age, sex, calling, and the country of citizenship, native country, intended destination or location, number of pieces of baggage, location of compartment or space occupied, and date and cause of death of passengers, as required by the "Passenger Act of 1882"; also a true statement as far as it can be ascertained, with reference to the intention of each alien passenger as to a protracted sojourn in this country. So help me God. (Signed) F.W. Ball. Sworn to this 19 June 1891, before me, (Signed) J.L. Sni?, Collector.
List or Manifest of all the Passengers taken on board the SS Venetian whereof F.W. Ball is Master, from Liverpool burthen 2672 tons.
Columns represent: Given Name and Surname, Age, Sex, Calling, The country of which they are Citizens, Native Country, Location of compartment or space occupied, and Whether Visitors only or intending to be permanent settlers. No entries were made in the columns labeled: Intended Destination or location, Number of pieces of baggage, and Date and Cause of Death, so those columns have been omitted from this transcription.

Transcriber's Notes:
Although the manifest has columns for recording the passenger's Intended Destination or
location, and Number of pieces of baggage, there were no entries recorded in these columns.
No passengers were listed as having died during the voyage and so that column too
was omitted in this transcription.
Recorded in the column headed "Whether Visitors only, or intending to be permanent settlers",
is the single entry "Stowaway".
