Transcriber's Notes:

There were no births or deaths on this passage.

The country in which all passengers intend to become inhabitants is the USA,
so that column was eliminated.

The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to the
quality of the original document.

 4-7 Mrs. H. D. F???e and family - All small letters. Could be Faine.
 8 Mr. Francis T. T???s - All small letters. Looks like Terns or Tuns.
17 Mrs Milke B??lan - Small letters. Could be Berlan or Bulan.
21 Jacob Sch?ler - Could be u or i. There is also a tall mark like an l above
   the line near the h, which may or may not be part of the name.
27 Christian A?nsld?s - First letter could be e or i, second letter could be u,
   er, or ie.
