[Transcriber's note: Line 23 reads: Michael Reiter, 16, male, single, locksmith, can read and write [ditto], Hungary, German, last residence Szt. Peter, destination Phila., Pa., has a ticket [ditto], passage paid by brother [ditto of line 22's "br."], \$2, going to join his brother Nikolaus Reiter, Otter St. 2928, Phila., Pa. The word "Josefka" [read] above "Szt. Peter" on line 22–23 belongs to line 22 (Chaim Stier) and is written partly over the line. A pencil "S" or "8" in column 12 beside lines 10–15 and line 23 is an examiner's mark.]
[Transcriber's note: Pencil annotations in columns 17–22: beside line 1, "Br. Memo. Confirmation [read]" and "(Pg ?)"; beside line 12, "Br. memo. Confirmation [read]"; beside line 18, "Br. Certificate [...] Defective vision [read], Myopia [read], Br. Myst [...]". The notes are faint and partly illegible. In column 14 several amounts are overwritten; the readings given are the final figures. A large penciled "30" in column 9 at line 29 is a count of the passengers on the sheet.]
* "Race or People" is to be determined by the stock from which they sprang and the language they speak. List of races will be found on back of this sheet.
