Transcriber's notes:

* Passengers were not numbered on the original manifest.
* ? represents letters that couldn't be read accurately.
* There were no deaths noted so I've eliminated the Death column.
* The following notes are listed by passenger number:

Passenger Notes:
 1 Vincent God?iff - The letter in question looks like an oversized 
   lower case S but it may be a B.
 9 through 12 Dunsford and Deniston - The word Ontario was added 
   in a different handwriting next to the word Canada in both columns.
