Transciber's notes:

  I have eliminated the Death column to save space, even though there were 
  two deaths on this voyage.  Passengers 176 and 177 died en route and the 
  notes on the deaths are below.

  In the sworn statement, the name of the ship is misspelled in once 
  instance and it is transcribed as written and noted with an *.

  Passenger names were written as given name followed by surname with the 
  exceptions, I believe, of passengers 183 through 200.  These passengers 
  all seem to have their surnames written first, followed by their given 
  names.

  The following notes are listed by passenger number:
  3  Marie Schafer - Her age is written in the Years column with a 3 written 
     as a superscript - could mean 9 years and 3 months or 9 and one-third 
     years.
  5  J?? Ernst We?ler - Given name could be Jac or Joc.  Surname is either 
     Weekler or Weckler.
 10  Terese Mo??lie - Both letters are written very close together and I 
     can't decipher the first.  The second letter is either G or Z.
 13  Emily Fi?glia - It appears there is a letter written before the G 
     in the surname but it may be just the way the recorder began writing 
     the letter G.  Part of the age is not legible due to a tear on the 
     original manifest.
 28  and 31 Muller - Umlaut over the U.
 29  Ernst H?ldan - The letter in question is partially covered by a tear on 
     the orignal manifest.  The letter doesn't appear to fall below the line.
 30  Aug. Todebusch - Occupation - geometer - means specialist in geometry.
 32  Schoner - Umlaut over the O.
 38  Adam Riett?? - This part of the film is quite dark, making it impossible 
     to decipher the letter.  There is a small mark below the last questionable 
     letter but I can't tell if it's just a stray mark or a bottom leg to the 
     letter.
 43  Gottl. Aldi?ger - The surname is either Aldinger or Aldimger.
 47  and 48  Ei?ig - The surname is either Eimig or Einig.
 59  through 61  G?? - The surname is either Gar, Gor, Gas, or Gos.  The age 
     of passenger 60 is too hard to read but it appears there is only one 
     number as would be written for a small child.
 64  Pauline Ahner - The second number in her age looks like just a small 
     squiggle and is impossible to decipher.
 65  Fredke Ahner - The last two letters in the given name are written as a 
     superscript and most likely the name is Frederika or a similar spelling.
 82  Marie K?oefer - The letter in question doesn't fall below the line or 
     extend high above the line.
 87  There is no name written for this passenger.
 90  Marg. Schulte - The number in question looks like a zero with a blob 
     above it.
 92  Leo??e Mahy - The name is either Leome or Leonie.
 94  through 98  Schluc??terer - The name is either Schluchterer or Schluctoterer.
 99  Rubino Vitontom? - The letter isn't legible enough but it doesn't fall 
     below the line or extend high above the line.
101  Herm. Misselbe?k - The name is either Misselbeck or Misselberk.
107  Georg Raab - His age is either 21 or 27.
118  Peter Jacobs - His age is either 40, 41, or 44.  
123  Johan Jacobs - His age looks like 7 that had been written over another 
     number.  If this is the case, he would be a twin to passenger 124.
131  An??l?? Behles - This name is at the bottom of the page on the original 
     manifest and is very hard to decipher.  The second letter in question 
     falls below the line, all others do not.
138  Heinr. Gotta - His age is either 23 or 29.
141  J. Bt?. Martin - The name Bt? is an abbreviation with the t? written as 
     a superscript, the last letter being either an A or an E.
153  and 154  De?ffe?t - The first letter in question is either N or U and 
     the second letter in question is either R or S.
155  Sebasti?n Sporowski - The name is either Sebastian or Sebastien.
156  Gury Dilelte? - The name is either Dilelter or Dileltes.  His age is 
     either 41 or 44.
160  Sophie Me??er - The name is either Meiner or Memer.
162  A??g Verdick - The letters are very small and too close together to 
     decipher accurately but neither letter falls below the line or rises 
     high above the line.  His age is either 5 or 15; I can't tell whether 
     the vertical line I see is part of his age or just a stray mark on 
     the film.
169  Gottl. De?gler - The name is either Demgler or Dengler.
176  Johanne Peeters - There is a notation in the Death column that reads - 
     Died 25 Sept 1880.
177  Petronella Peeters - There is a notation in the Death column that reads - 
     Died on the 15th of Sept 1880. 
180  and 181  Domen?co - The name is either Domenico or Domenoco.
184  Marchinn? Giuseppi - The name is either Marchinni or Marchinno.
189  Pignata?o Carlo - The name is either Pignataro or Pignataso.
199  Andrea Punti?n - The name is either Puntian or Puntien.
201  Madame Luc?? - Neither letter falls below the line or rises high above 
     the line.
202  Wilh. Buhle - There is an umlaut over the U.
231  through 233 - Wm - The m is written as a superscript and I believe the 
     name is an abbreviation for William.
