"Why shouldn't I, when it's just what you are?" "For one thing, Miss Ismay wouldn't like it." The man's face hardened. "I'm not sure she'd mind. Anyway, Miss Ismay doesn't like a good many things I'm in the habit of doing." Sally, who had watched him closely, turned away again, but a little thrill of exultation ran through her.
But Ismay, seeming to scent the drift of the questions, said that he never interfered in any way with the handling of the ship. Ismay was asked to give more particulars about his departure from the ship. He said: "The boat was ready to be lowered away and the officer called out if there were any more women or children to go or any more passengers on deck, but there was none, and I got on board."
She was attired in a long trailing dress of a shimmering corn-straw tint. Agatha Ismay had sung at unimportant concerts with marked success, but that evening there was something very like shrinking in her eyes. A crash of chords from the piano melted into a rippling prelude, and Winifred breathed easier when her friend began to sing.
He asserted that he pulled an oar and denied that in sending the three messages from the Carpathia, urging the White Star officials to hold the Cedric for the survivors of the Titanic's officers and crew, he had any intention to block investigation of the tragedy. Ismay asserted that he did not know there was to be an investigation until the Cunarder docked. Mr.
Ismay, and as he told me to do what I thought best, I informed him, I considered New York best. I thought it best to go to New York.

Sproatly, who glanced at them, noticed that Winifred did the same. Then Mrs. Hastings spoke. "I don't think you have met Miss Ismay, Sally," she said. Sally merely said that she had not, and Sproatly became more sure that the situation was an interesting one, when Mrs. Hastings formally presented her. It was clear to him that Agatha was somewhat puzzled by Sally's attitude.
She firmly believed that Ismay and I really liked cats deep down in our hearts, but that, owing to some perverse twist in our moral natures, we would not own up to it, but willfully persisted in declaring we didn't. Of all cats I loathed that white Persian cat of Aunt Cynthia's.
"Again, the passengers were all hysterical about ice, and I pointed out to Mr. Ismay the possibilities of seeing ice if I went to Halifax. Then I knew it would be best to keep in touch with land stations as best I could. We have experienced great difficulty in transmitting news, also names of survivors.
Other distinguished Englishmen on the Titanic were Norman C. Craig, M.P., Thomas Andrews, a representative of the firm of Harland & Wolff, of Belfast, the ship's builders, and J. Bruce Ismay, managing director of the White Star Line. Mr. Ismay is president and one of the founders of the International Mercantile Marine.
There sat Fatima, sleek and complacent, sunning herself in the window. Max laughed until the rafters rang. "She can't have been up here all this time," I protested, half tearfully. "We would have heard her meowing." "But you didn't," said Max. "She would have died of the cold," declared Ismay. "But she hasn't," said Max. "Or starved," I cried. "The place is alive with mice," said Max.
