Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not be transcribed 
  definitely.

  An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the 
  manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader should refer.

  A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted.

  "Masc" and "Fem" in the Sex column are shortened to "M" and "F" for formatting 
  reasons.
 

  6      Passenger's Age is overwritten and cannot be deciphered with certainty,
         but Age is possibly 26 or 42.
 11      First part of given name is not carefully written and cannot be deciphered.
         Name appears to have about six letters the last three of which are "asa".
 13      Passenger's Age is possibly 21, 27 or 29.
 16      First letter of surname cannot be deciphered with certainty, but surname
         is possibly though not certainly "Tuse" or "Fuse".
