So help me God. Signed, Henry Holdrige. Sworn to, the 28 June 1825 Before me, Jno Kearney
List or Manifest of all the Passengers taken on board the Ship Silas Richards whereof H.Holdrige is master, from Liverpool Burthen 454 13/95 Tons.
Columns represent: Names, Age, Sex, Occupation, The country to which they belong, The country in which they intend to become inhabitants, and Died on the Voyage. No passengers died on the voyage so instead the master of the ship included a description of the baggage brought on board by the passengers. All the passengers intended to become inhabitants of the United States so this column is deleted.

The second "t" looks like other t's on the list, it is just not crossed. * 19 Oconnor, not spelled with an apostrophe.
