..the great White Star liner Titanic slowly is crawling toward this harbor.
They make thank a calm sea and the wireless that they are alive today.
The White Star office in New York issued an official statement that it would be impossible for the Titanic to sink, no matter how badly she might have been injured.
Noooot quite… (it took until April 18th, the day the Carpathia - with the 705 survivors - docked in New York, before the full extent of loss of life was reported).
