Transcriber's notes:

The use of ? denotes letters that could not be read accurately.

There were no deaths noted on this voyage and, therefore, I have 
eliminated the death column.

The passengers were not numbered on the original manifest.  I have 
numbered them here for ease in refering to the transcriber's notes.

1 Mrs. T????? - All the letters are the same size and written the 
  same way, making it impossible to distinguish one from the other.  
  I believe that one of the letters is I as there is a dot above the 
  name.  The other letters look like m's, n's, u's, or w's.
