An exceeding fierce battle immediately began, for about fifteen minutes, when we, being overpowered by numbers, were obliged to retreat, with the loss of sixty-seven men, seven of whom were taken prisoners. The brave and much-lamented Colonels Todd and Trigg, Major Harland, and my second son, were among the dead.
A change had swept over my life, a change so great that I was hardly able to bear it. It was too swift, too overpowering to be calmly considered, and I was glad when we came alongside the 'Dream' and I saw Mr. Harland on deck, waiting for us at the top of the companion ladder. "Well!" he called to me "Was it a good sunset?" "Glorious!" I answered him "Did you see nothing of it?" "No.
He had no thought of himself, but only of duty and of others. Then came the end: the Titanic, with a low long slanting dive went down and with her Thomas Andrews. He was only 39, but had attained the high position of a Managing Director of the great firm of Harland and Wolff. I knew him as a boy, manly, handsome, high-spirited, clever "the father of the man."
Harland, with all your experience of the world, has it never occurred to you that there are some people whose opinions don't matter?"

I asked him, quickly "Why do you want to find out that something in me which baffles both Dr. Brayle and yourself?"
They forget that in order to understand the Infinite they must first be sure of the Infinite in themselves." "You speak like an oracle, fair lady!" said Mr. Harland "But despite your sage utterances Man remains as finite as ever." "If he chooses the finite state certainly he does," I answered "He is always what he elects to be." Mr.
Ham adopted a new line of policy, and with it a completely altered manner and tone. 'Well, Mr. Harland, suppose that it be as you say with respect to the provocation; there is another feature of the matter which I bring forward with reluctance, considering your relations of friendship with Mr. Gray. Here he paused. 'Pray, proceed sir. 'I may say, Mr. Harland, that the repute of Mr.
Such mysterious things DO occur, and they are beyond our searching out " "But," she interrupted, quickly "we were not so troubled by these mysterious things till we met this man Santoris " She broke off, and I rose to my feet, as just then Santoris approached, accompanied by Mr. Harland and the others. "I have suggested giving you a sail by moonlight before you leave," he said.
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.
'I did not know that Mr. Ham was an Irishman, chimed in Harland. 'One! 'Oh! groaned the respectable Mr. Ham. 'Two three! Simultaneously with the word 'three' there was a pistol shot. The gentlemanly Mr. Ham had fired before his opponent turned. Before he could see the result of his shot, Gray who had turned promptly at the word, fired; and with a frightful yell Mr.
When quite young she had been united in marriage to William Harland, and with him removed to the City of R., where they have since resided. He was employed as bookkeeper in a large mercantile house, and his salary was sufficient to afford them a comfortable support, whence then the change that has thus blighted their bright prospects, and clouded the brow of that fair young wife with care?
