Transcriber’s Notes: 
* indicates that these portions of the form were not filled in. 
* There is no date given, however 1891 is written on the manifest. 
? indicates that the name is illegible. Unfortunately the edge of the 
  manifest was not microfilmed. 
* Passenger #2 and #4 probably have the first name of "Jose" but this is 
  not clear. 
* Passenger #3 appears to have the first name of "Luse" or perhaps "Luise" 
  but again it is not clear. 
* It is interesting to note that the country to which they belong is 
  listed as Japan but all the names appear to be Hispanic.
