Ismay and myself decided that we might as well enter the boat and pull away from the wreck. If he wants me, I assume that he will write to me. "I can say nothing, however, that he has not already said, as our narratives are identical; the circumstances under which we were rescued from the Titanic were similar.
"I've been thinking about Miss Ismay and Gregory," Wyllard replied. "In fact, I feel a little anxious about them." "In what way?" "Without making any reflections upon Gregory, I somewhat feel sorry for the girl." Mrs. Hastings nodded. "As a matter of fact, that's very much what I felt from the first," she admitted.
Further Chronicles of Avonlea is a book to read; and to know. Max always blesses the animal when it is referred to; and I don't deny that things have worked together for good after all. But when I think of the anguish of mind which Ismay and I underwent on account of that abominable cat, it is not a blessing that arises uppermost in my thoughts.
When she came back the kitchen door had blown open and Fatima had vanished. Ismay and I were frantic. We ran about the garden and through the out-houses, and the woods behind the house, like wild creatures, calling Fatima, but in vain. Then Ismay sat down on the front doorsteps and cried. "She has got out and she'll catch her death of cold and Aunt Cynthia will never forgive us."
Hawtrey looked up with a flush in his face. "Harry," he said, "this is extravagantly generous." "Wait," returned Wyllard; "there's a little more to be said. I can't be back before the frost, and I may be away eighteen months. While I am away you will have a clear field and you must make the most of it. If you are not married when I come back I shall ask Miss Ismay again.
"I'll be candid," answered Wyllard. "For one thing, you held on when I was slipping off the trestle that day in British Columbia. For another, you'll make nothing of your own holding, and if you run the Range as it ought to be run it will put a good many dollars into your pocket, besides relieving me of a big anxiety. If you're to marry Miss Ismay, I'd sooner she was made reasonably comfortable."
This officer gave one of the most complete stories of the events that took place on the Carpathia from the time she received the Titanic's appeal for assistance until she landed the survivors at the Cunard Line pier. "Ismay reached the Carpathia in about the seventh life-boat," said the officer.
We left the boat together and were picked up together, and, further than that, we were the very last to leave the deck. "I am ready to go to Washington to testify to the truth of Mr. Ismay's statement, and also to give my own account at any time I may be called upon. If Mr. Ismay writes to me, asking that I give a detailed account of our rescue I will do so."
"I didn't know who he was, but afterward I heard the other members of the crew discussing his desire to get something to eat the minute he put his foot on deck. The steward who waited on him reported that Ismay came dashing into the dining room and said. "'Hurry, for God's sake, and get me something to eat, I'm starved. I don't care what it costs or what it is. Bring it to me."
Agatha Ismay had sung at unimportant concerts with marked success, but that evening there was something very like shrinking in her eyes. Then a crash of chords from the piano melted into a rippling prelude, and Winifred breathed easier when her friend began to sing.
