Sworn to before me on this 14th of Nov 1833 by Capt. Halb?tt. 
(Signed) Jesse Hunt, Mayor
  
Transcriber's Notes:  
This is a City List.

Captain's name could be something like Halbett.

Passenger Notes:
  #2-3 destination says United States for #2, and says ditto for #3; 
     not certain if that means they were also going to Ohio as #1 was, 
     or just means United States.
 #16-55 for destination, is only dittoed, so possibly for Ohio, or just 
     means United States.
 #31-33 pieces of the original are missing, cannot see any more of this.
 #34 area damaged, cannot see missing letter, age possibly 16 or 26, 
     can only be certain of the 6.
 #36 town spelled Heidstadt here, and Heinstadt for #46-55.  Uncertain 
     if they are the same.
 #42 area around surname damaged, but could be Pesseler or Pepseler, 
     or Tesseler or Tepseler, or something similar.
 #46-55 town spelled Heinstadt here, and Heidstadt for #36.  Uncertain 
     if they are the same.
 #50 age could be 1, or perhaps 7.
 #56 surname could be Schliefer or Schleifer.
 #57 damaged area, cannot figure out the occupation.
 #58 town area damaged, and destination possibly says United States, 
     so he could also be going to Missouri.  Middle initial not discernible.  
     Town just says Burg.
 #60-72 destination says United States for all these, so perhaps 
     meant to be dittoed for Natchez.
 #67 first name probably Margrethe, but damaged area.
