Passengers with small flags at the ship's rail

Under the overhang of an upper deck, passengers in winter coats and hoods press to the rail; a girl in a pale hood with a fur-trimmed coat looks back over her shoulder, a boy in the foreground squints into the low sun, and small flags, one of them the Stars and Stripes, are held up toward the towers of Manhattan faint in the haze beyond the water. The source describes refugees at the rail of the S.S. Excambion, arriving from Lisbon.
