beyond Titanic page 1

beyond Titanic page 1 by ric gustafson


Charlene stared at the New York skyline. It was a typical April night rainy and cold. Looking into the haze, she knew the Carpathia was nearing Pier 59.Several motorboats stopped to help. The liner was going to unload the lifeboats.
" One hundred dollars for an exclusive".
" Easiest money you will ever make".
Charlene could see a large crowd on the Cunard pier. When the Carpathia docked, she walked down the gangway. After processing, she picked out some new clothes from a room filled with donated clothing. She picked out a wool dress and stockings.  She was picked up in a cab and driven to the Hotel Montreal.
There in the lobby, they were met by a representative from the White Star Line.
" You must remain in New York". The voice hesitated. " In case you are called to testify for the Titanic inquiry".
