Read the excerpt from "Ellis Island.” For the most part, passengers in first or second-class accommodations disembarked in New York and entered the United States.

Those in third class or "steerage" had a very different experience throughout the journey. First, they were crammed below deck in filthy conditions with everything they owned.

From the port in New York, they were ferried to Ellis Island, where they might be held for hours, days, weeks, and in some cases months.

It was a frightening experience for the travelers.
