Certainly looks like 'Travelled inland on'

Might the initials be the type of transport used ?

C.P. - Canadian Pacific (Railway)

C.N. - Canadian National (Railway)

That's what I was thinking too - and I think the other initials will be G.T. for Grand Trunk (another railway).

The 2nd line of text in col 24 seems to refer to people? I might be misreading but other lines seem to say "with husband" "To Employer," "To Brother", etc.
Ah, could it be "To Cousin"??

His Canada Ocean Arrivals form states he is a pattern maker, intended occupation as checker (written very clearly).
And yes, he is indeed headed to his cousin, a Mr Joseph Fairhurst, residing at 1568 Bruce Ave., Windsor.  The address of his wife, back in England, is also recorded.
For whatever reason, they wrote over and under "to cousin" with his finger contracture problem, leading me to think they meant synovitis, not "cynosis".

Further to the mystery of his finger, I've found from Todmorden (Yorks) newspapers, where he grew up, that he was a (good) cricketer for Todmorden. In April 1910 it's mentioned that he's "absent due to blood poisoning", in May absent for the last three matches "unable to play due to an injured hand", and later in May that "his finger was not well enough for him to turn out" , but he was back playing in June.

Thanks everyone for your help

They are on Ancestry searchable by name, but Library and Archives Canada has all things immigration-wise on their site, but you have to scroll through images to find them.  These links are from the Archives:

Note that he says no disability, but on the back, the immigration noted his "mutilated" finger as an identifying mark.

As you appear to have access to newspapers, if his father was Henry Uttley Greenwood of Industrial St., you will want to check out page 8 of the newspaper: Todmorden & District News 22 January 1886.  Let me know if you can't locate it!

Thanks, that's very useful :-)
Ooh! Scandal!! Thanks, that's a good find! HU Greenwood was a band leader and a few of his sons played in it, including Wilfred.
thanks again
