Wed April 10 1912 10:20 am
David opened the brass doorknob of C-77 and walked into the elegant room.
" Excuse me Sir".
He turned to see a steward standing in the doorway. " Yes".
" I have your bags on my cart" he said as he tipped his hat. " I am Stringfeld, your steward".
" You can bring them in and put them by that sofa".
The steward, wearing a white coat, black bowtie and trousers, put them where he asked. He walked over and handed David an envelope. " This is an envelope of welcome from Mr Bruce Ismay and the White Star Line". He walked toward the door. " If you need me, just ring the bell that is over the desk".
" Thank you" David replied as he shook his hand. He left and David walked across the fancy blue carpet and sat down on the cherry colored bed. The light colored bedspread went up to four oversized pillows. He also noticed that there was a brass lamp over the bed.
He decided to take a walk and explore this beautiful ship before it sailed at noon. He walked down to the smoking room and because he was not a christian, decided to enjoy for a short time one of his vices. The room had wooden walls and red leather chairs. He also noticed at least one fireplace.
