The Allan Liner Virginian, the First Vessel to Receive the Wireless Message... April 20, 1912

The Allan Liner Virginian, the First Vessel to Receive the Titanics Wireless Message of Distress. Unfortunately she Arrived too Late to be of Service, April 20, 1912. The White Star Line ship RMS Titanic struck an iceberg in thick fog off Newfoundland on 14 April 1912. She was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner of her time, and thought to be unsinkable. In the collision, five of her watertight compartments were compromised and she sank. Out of the 2228 people on board, only 705 survived. A major cause of the loss of life was the insufficient number of lifeboats she carried.
