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.
