Transcriber's Notes:

A ? mark indicates letter or letters that could not be read because of the
quality of the document or the handwriting of the original lister. Every
attempt is made to list possibilities when feasible.
 
The numbers in parentheses at the end of each passenger listing represents a
number recorded in the left column. This is probably the ticket number. See 
Manifest Information for an explanation of this.

The numbering system is that of the transcriber and not of the original lister.

Passengers 245-253 represents a page that is headed "prepaids"; it is not clear
what is meant by this.
