Colonel Gracie says that it was he who lifted Mrs. Astor into the boat, the Colonel assisting. “As she took her place,” says Colonel Gracie, “Colonel Astor requested per- mission of the second officer to 80 31th her for her own protection. *‘No, j The version of this incident given ‘by\Miss Margaret Hays differs only a little from that of Miss Slater’s. She said that at the time Colonel Astor ihelped Mrs. Astor into this boat there {were n0' women waiting to get into {boas and that a ship’s officer stand- ging by thereupon invited Colonel As« gtor 1:0 get into the boat with his wife. 5 l l â€"-â€"â€" â€"â€"-~ " -Lb'. ‘ “Colonel Astor,” says Miss Hays, “after looking around and seeing that this was true, got into the boat and his wife threw her arms about him. The boat was about to be lowered when a woman came running out of the companionway. Raising his hand, Colonel Astor stopped the prepara- tions to lower the boat, and stepping out, assisted the woman into the seat he had occupied. Mrs. Astor cried out and wanted to get out of the boat with her husband, but he patted her on the back and said something in a low tone. As the boat was being'low- ered I heard him distinctly say: ‘The ladies will have to go first.’ ” “I saw Colonel Astor,” she said, “hand his wife into a boat tenderly, and then ask an officer whether he might also‘go. When permission wa refused, he stepped back and cool] took out his cigarette case. ‘Good- bye, dearie.’ he called; to he as he lighted a cigarette and leaned over the rail. ‘I’Il_join you later.’ ” Piecing together the stories about Col. Astor, it is clear that he and his wife were in their cabin when the ship struck the iceberg, that they at once came on deck and that upon the order for the women to get in the boats Mrs. Astor at first demurred, be- lieving that there was not sufficient danger to warrant risking her life in such a small craft. Col. Astor there- upon insisted. Miss Hilda Slater seems to have remembered particularly this scene. vivor’s stories it would also appear that the boat in which he tried to save his life had room for many more passengers, some say 16, when she left the ship’s side, and hence it would ap- pear that Colonel Astor might have remained except for his desire to see that others were not left.

It was reported that the Cunard Com- pany had had eleven hundred cancella- tions of passengers since the Titanic went down. It is said that other com- panies are suffering correspondingly. The priest exclaimed: “the great man dies and after all his death causes but a ripple. Those he leaves behind need not sufl’er. A poor man dies, and the course of his death rea- ches out like the circles made by a pebble that you throw into the water."
