I, Ara? Campbell, Master of the Steam-Ship Ethiopia do solemnly, sincerely, and truly affirm that the following List or Manifest, subscribed by me, and now delivered by me to the Collector of the Customs of the Collection District of New York, is a full and perfect list of all the passengers taken on board of the said S.S. Ethiopia at Glasgow for which Port said Steamer has now arrived; and that on the said list is truly designated the age, the sex, and the occupation of each of said passengers, the part of the vessel occupied by each during the passage, the country to which each belongs, and also the country of which it is intended by each to become an inhabitant; and that said List or Manifest truly sets forth the number of said passengers who have died on said voyage, and the names and ages of those who have died. So help me God.

Transcriber's Notes:
Occupations were ditto'd down the page even for the children.
The Danish last names with s?n could be either son or sen.
A single '?' could stand for 1 or more letters.
Multiple '?'s stand for the exact missing letter count.
ln 14: There is a tear above the first Olsen resulting in the rest of the
line being lost.
On the second page, the sex was shifted into the months column.
ln 58: I know Lars is a male name but the passenger says Female.
ln 80: I know Ingelbrigsdatter means daughter of and Martin is male, but
that's what it says.
ln 115: D? ?ch is right on a tear, making it very hard to read.
ln 167: The name below James Cairns is mostly obliterated by the center
fold. And of course the following three names are ditto'd off it.
