the miracle on Titanic page 28 by ric Gustafson

Sat April 13 1912  4:30 pm
David walked toward the entrance to the first class lounge. Just then, he noticed an older couple walking up toward him.
" Mr Sharpston" replied the female as she waved at him. " I am Lady Lucy Duff". She pointed to the man next to her. " This is my husband Cosmo".
" Sharpston" he replied as he shook David's hand. " As in the Sharpston Steel Corp".
David grinned. " Yes, my father started the company".
David opened the door. Captain Smith and Fourth Officer Boxhall walked out.
Captain Smith smiled. " Good afternoon Mr Sharpston". His hound was sitting by his side.
" Afternoon Captain". His voice hesitated. " Any reports of ice?".
Captain Smith turned to his officer. " Boxhall, have we received any reports of ice?".
The young officer shook his head. " Not yet Sir".
" Mr Boxhall, how many miles did we do yesterday?".
" I believe 519 miles Sir".
