Transcriber's Notes:
 
There were no entries in the blanks for the Commissioner of Immigration's 
  signature.
The following columns had identical entries and so were not included in the 
  table:
    Nationality=Japanese 
    Last Residence=Japan 
    Destination=U.S.A.

1 The entry for this passenger is completely crossed out.
9 missing letter(s) in first name is three loops/humps; could be "m" "ne" 
    "in" or "en."
  Below all the passengers listed, in the Remarks column is "Atache Tenzo, 
    The Missions."  Perhaps this is a notation regarding a contact to deal 
    with the stowaway.
