Transcriber's Notes
Passenger numbers added to aid with referencing.
There is no captain's statement nor captain's name attached to this 
  manifest.
The blanks for date of departure are not filled in.

Whether ever in Prison, Almshouse or supported by Charity=no

Condition of Health Mental and Physical=good
Whether having any deformities=no 
The numbers in the Whether in Possession of Money column are written 
  with the final two zeros 
elevated above the line with a line drawn under them, as one would do 
  to indicate cents.
Letters that are illegible or difficult to interpret are indicated by ?.
