A Wireless Cabin on an Atlantic Liner, 20 April, 1912. Creator: Unknown
A Wireless Cabin on an Atlantic Liner, 20 April, 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. Jack Phillips, the ships senior wireless operator, tried to save the Titanic and all those on board by transmitting pleas for help until the ship lost power and sank. He died in the tragedy and his body was never recovered. Page 9, from " Titanic In Memoriam Number", a special supplement in " The Daily Graphic" newspaper issued following the sinking of the Titanic on 15 April 1912, published on 20 April 1912
