Depuis quelques heures, il y a 104 ans, des nouvelles alarmantes circulent sur un accident subi par le Titanic lors de son voyage inaugural. On saura bientôt que le fleuron de la white star Line n'arrivera jamais à New York et que 1 500 passagers et personnels de bord ont péri en mer.
Today is 15th April. As the day goes on, it becomes clearer and clearer that there has been a major disaster, together with a daunting loss of life. Titanic, the largest moving item on the Earth, had foundered, and sadly, became a new, terrible statistic.
Carpathia had steamed to the area of the sinking, and managed to rescue the people in the lifeboats. But for the majority of the others, they were swallowed up by the vastness of the cold, dark, North Atlantic.
