Transcriber's Notes:

* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not the transcriber,
  or calls attention to additional information in the transcriber notes.

A portion of the printed form at the top of manifest is obscured by the attached note.  
 The gaps are filled in by what appears on all other manifests on the film. The information
 that was written in the blanks is all visible.

Question marks replace missing or illegible information.

The pages on this film are not numbered so finding a particular ship can be difficult.  
 However, there appears to be a system of numbering the manifests.  In this portion of 
 the film the numbers are not in exact order.  These numbers are included in the 
 identification of the film and reel numbers below.

The first two paragraphs above are printed as part of the form for this list.  The third 
 paragraph is a note apparently attached to the list.  The next paragraph is a stamp
 placed on the body of the page and then completed.

The following columns had no entries:
 No of Certificate
 Last Place of Residence
 Complexion
 Color of Eyes
 If accredited officers of Chinese Government, state facts
