Abstract:
"Names of the 'ma'apilim' [clandestine Aliyah Bet refugees into Palestine] that were listed on the packages [luggage aboard the ship Exodus 1947] that were confiscated by the British and placed on the deck of the deportation ships. This list, written originally in English, and prepared by the British, was received about a half year ago from England. Writing errors [errors in transcription] of the name and errors in translation into Hebrew, does not assure the authenticity of the name. The list in English appears on this site, under the heading "list of package owners."--[English translation of Hebrew explanatory note excerpted from http://www.exodus1947.org/list.html (Accessed 14 September 2004)].
