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:

My sister was indeed momentarily rejected; she had been so ill and had cried so much that her eyes were absolutely bloodshot, and Mother was told, “Well, we can’t let her in.”

This quotation adds credibility to the text because

it comes from an actual immigrant whose experience agrees with Freedman’s statement that one out of every five immigrants was detained.
it comes from an actual immigrant whose experience proves that no one was detained on Ellis Island.
it comes from a young woman who was held on Ellis Island, which supports Freedman’s statement that one out of every five immigrants was detained.
it comes from a mother whose daughter was detained because her eyes were red and bloodshot
