Transcriber's Notes:
The page of the manifest on which are recorded the names of passengers number 374-399
is missing from the NARA microfilm. It may have been missing from the original
manifest or this page was inadvertantly skipped when the manifest was being microfilmed.
A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not be transcribed
with certainty.
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 entry "United States" in the native country and destination country columns
is shortened to "U. States" for formatting reasons. "Male" and "Female" in the
Sex column are shortened to "M" and "F" for the same reason.
