The chapter title that best reflects the description of a journey across the Atlantic Ocean, as depicted in the excerpt, is “Packed Like Cattle.” This title captures the sense of being tightly packed with many others, the unpleasant conditions described, and the overall hardship of the voyage.
"We came by steerage on a steamship in a very dark place that smelt dreadfully. There were hundreds of other people packed in with us, men, women and children, and almost all of them were sick. It took us twelve days to cross the sea, and we thought we should die, but at last the voyage was over, and we came up and saw the beautiful bay and the big woman with the spikes on her head and the lamp that is lighted at night in her hand.”
—Sadie Frowne, 1902
