I, H. Heinere Master of the [Ger?] S.S.

sincerely and truly swear that the annexed list, subscribed with my name,
contains, to the best of my knowledge and belief, a just and true account
or report of all the passengers who have been taken on board the said
vessel at Bremen or any other Foreign Port, or at sea, and brought in the
said vessel into any district of the United States since her departure from
the said Port of Bremen, Germany and that on the
said list are truly designated the age, sex, and calling of each of the
said passengers, the location of the compartment or space occupied by each
during the passage, the country of the citizenship of each, and also the
destination or location intended by each; and that the said List or Manifest
truly sets forth the number of the said passengers who have died on the
said voyage, and the dates and causes of death, and the names and ages of
those who died; also the pieces of baggage of each; also a true statement,
so far as it can be ascertained, with reference to the intention of each
alien passenger as to a protracted sojourn in this country. So help me God.

Transcriber's Notes:
* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder not
the transcriber or is used to call your attention to additional information
in the transcriber's notes below.
? The ? marks indicate letters or words that cannot be read due to the
quality of the original document.
^ The caret indicates the letter following is raised or superscripted.
* The original manifest numbered the Cabin Passengers from 1 to 11. Then
Steerage Passengers began with number 1 again. This formatter has changed
the numbering sequence to continue with number 12 for the first Steerage
Passenger, etc. for ease in following Transcriber's Notes.
* All passengers listed the intended destination as Baltimore.
Therefore this column was omitted.
* The column Died on Voyage listed no deaths. Therefore this column
was omitted.
* The accommodation column was omitted since only the first eleven
passengers were in the Cabin section. The rest were in Steerage.
* The column "transient or in transit" was used by the recorder to list
the final destination of each passenger.
