It describes the processing of Asian immigrants through Angel Island in San Francisco Bay - the "Ellis Island" of the west. It also describes the various segments of San Francisco's Asian community, as perceived by a woman missionary. The opinions and language used are indicative of the attitudes and prejudices of the time, and would not be considered "politically correct" today. I am placing it on the Internet as a contemporary account of Asian immigration in the early 1900s. - Lou Alfano Foreword We are all familiar with Ellis Island on the Atlantic coast, but many do not know of the existence of Angel Island on the Pacific coast where the incoming orientals are received. It was a note of the early Christian that he was "given to hospitality." The spirit of the Master teaches us to share with others. Why should not this attitude characterize our national relations with the incomers who cross the seas to sojourn in our land? Unrestricted and unregulated immigration would not be wise either on our eastern or western coasts. We need the most careful consideration of the character of our future citizenship. But when we have decided who may be admitted to our land, let us receive all who come with a true Christian courtesy. It is not wholly a matter of legislation and officialism. The observant writer of this little story indicates clearly the significance of what should be done to give our new guests a kindly welcome. The Golden Gate and Angel Island should be worthy of their beautiful names. Here is an important task for the Christian women of our Home Mission Societies.
