Schooner Coral Isle

I, M. Stubbs, Master of the Br Sch Coral Isle, do solemnly, sincerely, and truly swear that the following List or Manifest, subscribed by me, and now delivered by me to the Collector of the Customs of the Collection District of New York, is a full and perfect List of all the Passengers taken on board the said Schooner at Turks Island, from which Port the said Schooner has now arrived; and that on said List is truly designated the age, the sex, and the occupation of each of said passengers, the part of the vessel occupied by each during the passage, the country to which each belongs, and also the country of which it is intended by each to become an inhabitant; and that said List or Manifest truly sets forth the number of said Passengers who have died on said Voyage and the names and ages of those who died.
So help me God. (Signature) M Stubbs.

Sworn to this 4th May 1868,
Before me. (Signature) W ? C??????, D.C..

  Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that cannot be transcribed 
  definitely.

  An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of
  the manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader 
  should refer.

  The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not 
  numbered in the original manifest.

  The entry "United States" in the native country and destination country columns 
  is shortened to "U.S.A." for formatting reasons.  "Male" and "Female" in the 
  Sex column is shortened to "M" and "F" for the same reason.

  The designation "Br Sch Coral Isle" in the Captain's sworn statement at the 
  beginning of the manifest likely implies that the Schooner Coral Isle is of
  British ownership or registry.

  
  1    Surname appears to be either "Mazuard" or "Maznard".
  3-4  No entry is recorded in the column headed "The Country in which they 
       intend to become inhabitants".
  4    Surname appears to be written as "Uhelpley", but might possibly be 
       "Whelpley".
