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.

The pages on this film are not numbered so finding a particular ship can be difficult.  
 However, there appears to be a system of numbering the manifests.  These numbers are
 included in the identification of the film and reel numbers below.

The departure port is listed as simply Panama.  Research indicates this is Panama City.

The following columns had no entries:
 No of Certificate
 Height
 Complexion
 Color of Eyes
 Physical Marks or Peculiarities and Facts of Identification
 If accredited oficers of Chinese Government, state facts
