Ship Glasgow
I, Thomas F. Roskell, Master of the Br. Ship Glasgow 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 Steamer at Liverpool from which port the said Steamer 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, (Signed) Thomas F. Roskell
Sworn to this January 28, 1862 Before me (signed) C. W. Embree, D. C.

The "Location of compartment or space occupied" was not indicated by the original lister. The original lister did not number the passengers. An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which further explains the entry. A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the quality of the document. Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's Notes of what the letter/letters may be. A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name or word. The original lister showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line. 1 This name and the list in general is difficult to read. Name could be Thwaite, Thwenter. 5 This surname is almost impossible to distinguish. The flourish from the "L" above comes down through the name. The first letter of the surname could be "V" and the first letter of the second part of the surname could be "N". The lettters following are all on the line and could be a combination of "u", "a", "n" or "e".
