Brig T.H.A. Pitt

I, Lock*, Master of the Br Brig T H A Pitt, 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 Brig at Bermuda from which Port the said Brig has now arrived; and that on said List is truly designated the age, the sex, and the occupation of each of said passengers, 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. (Signature) Geo S Lock*

Sworn to this November 26 1867,
Before me. (Signature) ?????????, D.C..

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.

  The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not 
  numbered in the original manifest.

  The designation "Br Brig T H A Pitt" in the Captain's sworn statement at the 
  beginning of the manifest likely implies that the Brig T H A Pitt is of
  British ownership or registry.

  *  The Captain's surname appears to be written as "Locke" at the top of the manifest
     yet his signature at the bottom of the sworn statement appears to be "Lock". 

  2  First letter of given name is not decipherable with certainty, but might possibly
     be "Traney".
