Transcriber's Notes:
 
Several pages of this manifest are so faint as to be virtually unreadable.  Question marks
   indicate letters or, in some cases, entire words that are unreadable due to the condition
   of the manifest copy.  Where possible, further information as to what these letters or words
   might be is included in these notes.
In some instances where there is a transcriber's note indicating that a name or number "may
   be" something, the information following may be little more than a guess based on portions
   of letters that can be seen or that appear as little more than shadows.
There is no heading on the last column of this manifest.  It contains place names that may
  represent where the passengers are travelling from.
Some of the passengers are bracketed together in the baggage column.  This may indicate shared
  baggage, or that several passengers are travelling together.
A column, Intended Destination, has been eliminated to save space.  All passengers are
    listed as destined for the United States.
A column, Date and Cause of Death, has been eliminated because there are no entries in it.
A column, Transient or in transit, or intending protracted sojourn, has been eliminated to 
    save space.  The passengers on this portion of the manifest are listed as "intg. protr. soj."
The use of a ^ indicates that the following letter is a superscript.
When more than one member of a family with the same surname is listed on this manifest,
   the surname is almost always only written out for the first person in the group.  All
   individuals listed directly under that person show only ditto marks for a surname.  Thus,
   when the surname for the first family member is unreadable, there are no additional
   instances of the name to look at.  The one exception to this is when the family group
   happens to continue onto the top of a second page and the list writer rewrites the surname.
 While most of the passenger names on this manifest are listed in the order, given name followed
    by surname, the following passengers appear to be listed in reverse order:
    #669,670,674,677,678,679,680,682,855,856,857,858,859. Passenger #683 may also be included
    in this group.  These passengers are listed as Hungarian and it is the custom to list
    the surname before the given name in Hungary.
With rare exception, only men are listed as tourists, therefore in instances where the sex
   of the passenger cannot be read, and the calling is listed as tourist, it is likely the
   passenger is male.

671,     age may be 51.
672,     surname is Baske or Baski.
675,676, bracketed together in baggage column.
679,     surname could be Tunoczko.
686,     age may be 35.
688,689,690,691, bracketed together in baggage column. 
692,     given name too faint to read.  There is a 4 in the age, but it cannot
         be determined if the 4 is the first numeral or second.  Occupation and sex are not
         visible.  Passenger bracketed together in baggage column with passengers #693,694,
         695,696,697,698.
693,     age and sex not visible.  Passenger bracketed together in baggage
         column with passengers #692,694,695,696,697,698.
694,     age not visible.  Dittos in sex column indicate sex is the same as passenger
         #693.  Passenger bracketed together in baggage column with passengers #692,693,695,696,
         697,698.
695,     dittos in sex column indicate sex is the same as preceding passenger.
         Passenger bracketed together in baggage column with passengers #692,693,694,696,697,698.
696,     appears to be a superscript letter at the end of the given name.  Dittos in
         sex column indicate sex is the same as passenger #694.  Passenger bracketed together in
         baggage column with passengers #692,693,694,696,697,698.
697,698, dittos in sex column indicate sex is the same as preceding passenger.
         Passengers bracketed together in baggage column with passengers #692,693,694,695,696.
701,702, bracketed together in baggage column.
704,     bracketed together with passenger #705 in baggage column.
705,     second numeral in age not visible. Passenger bracketed together in baggage
         column with passenger #704.
707,708, bracketed together in baggage column.
709,710, bracketed together in baggage column.
715,     end of surname cannot be clearly determined.  Surname could be Bub or
         Bule.  It is possible there are more than two letters missing. Passenger bracketed 
         together with passenger #716 in baggage column.
716,     bracketed together with passenger #715 in baggage column.
718,     second numeral in age is not visible.
719,720, bracketed together in baggage column.
723,     age is 59 or 39. 
727,728,729,730, bracketed together in baggage column. 
734,735,736, bracketed together in baggage column.
749,750,751,752, bracketed together in baggage column.
753,754,755,756,757, bracketed together in baggage column.
770,     surname may be Burdu or Burdau.  The name definitely ends in u, and it
         appears as if an a may have been inserted between the d and the u after the 
         name was first written.
772,773, bracketed together in baggage column.
787,788, bracketed together in baggage column.
789,790, bracketed together in baggage column.
794,     given name is Louese or Louise.  The fourth letter is shaped much more like
         an e than an i, but it also appears as if it might be dotted.  Given the quality of
         the microfilm copies, what looks like a dot may just be a random mark.  Passenger is
         bracketed together with passengers #795,796 in the baggage column.
795,796, bracketed together in baggage column with passenger #794.
797,798,799, bracketed together in baggage column.
800,801,802,803, bracketed together in baggage column.
805,     surname is Domterowski or Dornterowski.
811,812,813, bracketed together in baggage column.
815,816,817,818,819, bracketed together in baggage column.  Passenger #814
         is not included in this bracket, although he is surely part of this group.  On the
