Hi
I have difficulty reading the annotations of Mary and Elizabeth Rafferty on the attached ships manifest - Aliens held for special Enquiry
From what I can gather they were admitted to the US on 30.10.1928 (same day as everyone else)
Reason for detention is ...C and LPC - I understand that LPC is likely public charge, but I can't decipher the first set if initials
Anyone able to help me understand what the reason for being held was, and what it meant?

All I see is Mary Rafferty - 2 cab - group 7 - no 13/14 ENG - LPC - ditto 10.00 - Inspector Ferro
LPC is as you said Aliens likely to become public charges

Thanks,
I had looked at image 299, but not 300! So it was for Medical reasons the special Inquiry - they obviously passed inspection then.

Did you notice on anc that someone had added a name variation - Mary McAlinden rather than Mary Rafferty ?

I did, that's her maiden name
