On September 16, 1925, Hugh Edward Gallagher wrote a letter home to Ireland. Ellis Island, he reported, was “not so bad as people paint it,” but the inspection process was another matter altogether. He and his fellow detainees had been “marched down the gangway like so many sheep,” and then made to “parade up and down like an old horse whom the buyer was putting to a severe test.” Fortunately, his health passed muster; by the end of the letter he’d found an apartment in Brooklyn for only $9 a week (a bargain even then).
