Rough Times

The lives of a imigrant. When imigrants came from Russia, Italy, France, etc. They came expecting good jobs and housing conditions but they didn't get any of that. When they came through Ellis Island they were looking around thinking is the best place in the world. But when they walk further they saw trashy streets and bad housing buildings. The apartments were as big as you could afford for example you got pay liltle money you had a small apartment. The apartment had big families they all had to live in  small spaces.They had no bathroom or showers even. At the factories they would work their buts off just to put foodon the table. Work hard and gain little money at times. People rarely tooks showers or even brushed their teeth plus the streets were smelly alreadt cause they had  no pluming. So you could imagine the nasty smell they had on them and in their sorrounding. !Not happy time!
