Printed statement at bottom of manifest:

Note: If any articles of the Outward Cargo are brought back, they are to be detailed, 
specifying by whom shipped outward, and to whom consigned inward. The names of all passengers, 
distinguishing whether Cabin or steerage passengers, with the description and number of 
Packages containing their baggage or implements of a mechanical trade, and the Vessel and Cabin 
Stores, must also be inserted in the manifest.


Transcriber's Notes:

* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not
  the transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information
  in the transcriber's notes.

^ Indicates letters are omitted and the following letter is superscripted.

* Ancestry.com shows this as page 1 of 4 pages. It is obvious that each page is for a different 
  voyage of a ship called Nancy, that may have been the same ship or not as the ship on page 1.
  I was able to separate the four voyages into separate ones from Ancestry.com's tabulation 
  based on dates that the ships arrived in Philadelphia and the passenger lists.
