the miracle on Titanic page 25 by ric gustafson
Jack Phillips nervously took the wire out of his pocket. He gave it to Captain Smith. " Captain, I have an ice warning for you".
The Captain opened the wire and read it. " It is a warning from the Caronia". He gave the wireless operator a stern stare. " This was dated two days ago".
" Sorry Sir".
" Any more ice warnings need to be given to me at once". He stared at the scared operator. " Understood".
" Aye Sir". He quickly walked back to the cramped wire room.
Bride was busy sending out personal messages.
" How is it going?".
" Terrible" replied the young operator. " Look at this huge stack of messages I still have to send".
" Why is that?".
" The machine was down until 5 this morning". He held up the stack of messages. " I still have all these messages to do".
" If you get any more ice warnings". Phillips sat down in his chair. " Captain Smith wants to see them right away".
" Ok".
