Transcriber's Notes: * The use of an * indicates an error or omission made by the original recorder. * The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that cannot be read, due to the quality of the original document * In many cases among the Scandinavian passengers there are so many check marks and overwrites that it is difficult to tell if a diacritical mark exists or not. * The recorder appeared to use ditto marks, check marks and lines through columns all to represent ditto's in reference to the previous passengers entry. * Where passengers have a "CA and a number listed means Certificate of Arrival and indicates activity in response to filing a Declaration of Intention or a Petition for Naturaliztion. See passengers 12, 57, 64, 74, 80, 82, 91 and 94. * Passengers 32 and 86 have numbers written in which could have been verification numbers associated with naturalization activity. * After passenger 28 and below columns 24 through 27 a tally was written as follows: Am. I.T. Aliens Total where Am. appears to be Americans and I.T. means In Transit 5 1 20 26 * After passenger 42 and below columns 24 thorugh 27 a tally was written as follows: Am. I.T.
