Jasonville, Indiana is 30 miles outside of Terre Haute.

It's just barely in Greene County. If you search 'Greene County, IN' in Google Maps it shows you the outline of the county with Jasonville in the northwest corner and Scotland on the southern border, with Burns City south of that in another county. I love it!

My reading:

Name no. 3 on image 912
Wilson, James, age 21, male, single, miner, reads, writes, nationality Scotland, race or people Scotch [sic], last permanent residence Scotland, Irvine, nearest relative there (Father) James Wilson, 7 West Rd., Irvine, final destination Indiana, Terre Haute [Terre Haute has a line drawn through it]

Name no. 3 continues on image 913
Has ticket to final destination? no, passage paid by self, has $50 or not, yes $50, ever before in U.S.? no, going to Uncle David Bain, W. 39th St., Chicago, Uncle James Craig, Jasonville, Indiana, Greene County, height 6', complexion Medium, hair Dark, eyes Blue, marks of identification nil, place of birth Scotland, Irvine
