Where was the destination of Titanic?
The Titanic, With 2,300 passengers aboard, was on its first voyage from Southampton to New York. It was 11:40 p.m. on April 14th 1912 and the sea was calm. Suddenly the look-out man saw the enormous iceberg. "Ice berg ahead!" he shouted.
Immediately the ship turned, but not soon enough. The iceberg tore a 300-foot hole in the hull and water began to pour in, At fig,st the captain didn’t worry because the ship was said to be" unsinkable". Then the ship began to lean, At 12:05 the captain gave the order "Uncover the lifeboats"!
The Wireless operator sent out an SOS signal. Six ships began to race towards the Titanic. But the two ships who were closest did not hear the desperate calls for help.
At two a.m. the captain gave the order "Abandon ship !" A few minutes later the Titanic began to slip beneath the surface. One by one the last passengers jumped into the sea. Then the stem rose up in the air and the Titanic sank quickly out of sight.
At dawn the next morning a rescue boat picked up 705 survivors, from the lifeboats. Most of them were first and second-class passengers. All their children survived. Of the children who traveled third class, only a third survived.
