((From here, Ella's writing changed from a diary format to notes that were probably written later. Laura has divided them by date, based on other records of the time.))
We docked on Tuesday morning. ((August 25)) That day only the Diplomats and some suspects got off. We all were a little put out when we saw some of our friends get off the first afternoon already and wondered why they got a break, but soon we knew why. They were being sent to Ellis Island for questioning. Hearing that, we were only too glad they had not called on us.
