Read Edward Corsi's quotation from the book
Immigrant Kids by Russell Freedman.
The writer Angelo Pellegrini has recalled his own
family's detention at Ellis Island:
"We lived there for three days - Mother and we
five children, the youngest of whom was three
years old. Because of the rigorous physical
examination that we had to submit to,
particularly of the eyes, there was this terrible
anxiety that one of us might be rejected. And if
one of us was, what would the rest of the family
do?"
his mother lived on Ellis Island with her children, and
their experience agrees with Freedman's statement
that families were separated.
O he lived at Ellis Island for three days, and his
experience agrees with Freedman's statement that
families were afraid of the health examinations.
O he was a writer who wrote about Ellis Island and
described the feelings an immigrant might have
during the physical exams.
O he lived at Ellis Island for three days, and his
experience shows that immigrants actually were not
very fearful of the health examinations.
