Beyond Titanic page 1 by ric gustafson
Charlene stared at the New York skyline. It was a typical April night. It was rainy and cold. She watched as the Carpathia was nearing the pier. Several motorboats were nearby. Later, as she walked down the gangway from the ship the voices started.
" One hundred dollars for an exclusive".
She kept walking.
" Easist money you will ever make".
Charlene walked to the start of the Cunard pier. A large crowd had gathered. She quickly looked around. Just like on the Carpathia, she did not see David. With the other survivors, she was led to a building that was filled with donated clothing. She picked out a wool dress and stockings. Then she was placed in a cab and taken to the Hotel Montreal.
In the lobby, she was greeted by a representative of the White Star Line.
" You are to remain in New York". He frowned. " In case you're called to testify at the Titanic inquiry".
