This is a passenger manifest that may be for Matas (as indexed on ancestry.com):

His last residence was probably Tros^kunai, one of which is in the Anyks^c^iai district, the other in the Vilnius district.It is pronounced trosh-koo-nai.He was going to a friend, Klement Kerzgelis?, in NY.Another passenger is from the same village on the next line, Peter Grischau, age 21, but going to a different "friend" in NY."Friend" might also mean cousin or some other relative.
You can see where both villages named Tros^kunai are on Google Maps.Type "Lithuania Trosk" without the quotes and you can choose which one to look at, using the "ruler" to expand the view or narrow it.
