Thomas page 1 by ric gustafson


Thomas ran down the seaweed covered dock. " A job" he yelled as he ran among the people waiting to board the giant liner. " Does anybody need a servant?".
Elinor Glyn pointed at the young man. " Look at that desperate young man Lucile".
Lucile Duff Gordon touched her bright red hair. " I just hired a new servant".
" Oh yes, Tess Collins".
Thomas almost ran into a tall thin man who sported a large mustache. " Where are you going young man?".
" Looking for a job Sir" he replied with a smile. " So I can get on that big ship".
" What is your name young man?".
" Thomas Bent".
" Well Thomas Bent, if you can leave within the hour" he said as he pointed toward the Titanic. " I will hire you as my servant".
