Steamer Saxonia

I, H Ehlers, Master of the Str Saxonia, 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 Collection District of New York, is a full and perfect list of all the passengers taken on board the said Steamer at Hamburg & Southampton, from which port said Steamer has now arrived; and that on said List is truly designated the age, the sex, and the occupation of each passenger, the part of the vessel occupied by each during the passage, the country to which each belongs, and also the country of which it is intended by each to become an inhabitant; and that said List or Manifest truly sets forth the number of said passengers who have died on said voyage, and the names and ages of those who died.
So Help Me God.
H Ehlers

Sworn to this Feb 20th 1861
Before Me J White DC

List or Manifest of all passengers taken on board the Str Saxonia
whereof Ehlers is Master, from Hamburg & Southampton.
Burthen 2300 tons

Columns represent: Name, Age, Sex, Occupation, Country to which they severally belong, Country of which they intend to become inhabitants, Died on voyage, Part of ship occupied by each during the voyage. Only one death during voyage (passenger # 30) so that column has been eliminated. All passengers are bound for the US and the location of the passengers during the voyage is not given, so those columns were also eliminated.
