the miracle on Titanic page 4 by ric gustafson.
Camille walked up the Grand Staircase and figured her son was in the smoking room. She opened the door and smelled the stale cigar smell. She noticed her son sitting in a red leather chair smoking a cigar with an older gentleman.
" Mother" he said as he stood up and pointed toward his new friend. " I'd like to introduce you to Colonel John J Astor".
The middle aged man with a mustache stood up and shook her hand. " A pleasure to meet you" he said as he smiled. " Are you related to the Sharpston Steel Corp?".
" Yes, my father started the company".
Colonel Astor's valet walked in and he excused himself.
" Let's go up on deck" she said as she walked toward the glass doors. " The ship will be sailing before too long".
They walked along the Boat Deck and David noticed the lifeboats tied up along the side. He heard laughter coming from the first class passageway and glanced to see what it was.
A young woman with flowing blonde hair and wearing a huge red hat walked by David. A male companion was with her.
David noticed what looked like a bible in her left hand.
