the miracle on Titanic page 5 by ric gustafson
" Good morning Mr Boxhall".
The fourth officer, standing on the railing to the bridge, turned and saw the smiling face of Captain E J Smith.
" A grand morning it is" the young officer replied.
The Captain had his Afghan hound by his side. " Have you been working on our course?".
" Aye Sir". They walked onto the bridge and stopped at a large map. " I have us more on a southerly route to avoid ice fields".
" That's fine for right now".
Captain Smith noticed a young man enter the wireless operator room. He knocked on the door. It opened to reveal a young man standing by something he had never seen before.
" Come in Captain, I'm Jack Phillips". He shook the Captain's hand. " Mr Bride and myself will be in charge of the Marconi wireless".
" Mr Phillips, what is the range of this wonderful new apparatus?".
" Four hundred miles by day Captain".
" Good".
