Transcriber's Notes:

* The ? in the Captain's name indicates one letter which looks to 
  be a closed "e", however, it may be an "i" without the dot above.  
  In the statement in the upper portion of the page there is no obvious 
  dot above the letter which made me believe it to be an "e", however, 
  in the signature at the lower part of the page there does appear to 
  be a dot.  Thus, the name could be either Holder or Holdir.
* The ? in the Deputy Collector's name indicates letters that can not be 
  definitively read. The Deputy Collector's name is written with all the 
  letters joined together and with DC attached.  The writing is uniform in 
  size, taking up 4 1/4 inches in length and 7/16th of an inch in height 
  except for the final "C" which is a full 1 inch in width and height and 
  falling above and below the line of script. The first letter looks like 
  an "N" with the remainder of the letters possibly being "Bomn" followed 
  by DC If this is an accurate interpretion it would make the name N. 
  Bomn, DC
* No passengers were listed as having died on the voyage so the column 
  was eliminated
