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 below.
? The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to
quality of the original document.
^ The use of a ^ indicates that the letter/letters following are superscripted.
The transcription preserves the original spelling.
All ditto marks on the original manifest have been replaced with the actual words
indicated.
The manifest scribe used long vertical lines to probably indicate continuation
of the last written word(s). These lines have been replaced with the actual
word/words indicated.
The manifest did not include psgr #s; they have been added by the transcriber.
The manifest scribe used a Germanic letter resembling 'fs'; to aid in reading,
these have been transcribed to 'ss'.
The denominator of the fraction of tonnage is illegible.
8 First letter of surname not clear because of stray mark, could be Canin.
12 Initial (first name) not clear, could be "N" or "V".
28 Ending of surname illegible because of handwriting, could be Whitney or
Whiting.
35 Surname omitted.
36-38 5th letter of surname not clear, ending of surname illegible because
of overwriting of Age.

48 Next-to-last letter(s) of surname not clear, could be Lemoms or Lemorns.
64 6th and 7th letters of surname illegible.
