Shipwrecks -- North Atlantic Ocean -- History -- 20th century; Titanic (Steamship)

“With most touching detail he promptly ordered the ship’s officers to
their stations, distributed the doctors into positions of the greatest
usefulness, prepared comforts for man and mother and babe; with
foresight and tenderness he lifted them from their watery imprisonment
and, when the rescue had been completed, summoned all of the rescued
together and ordered the ship’s bell tolled for the lost, and asked
that prayers of thankfulness be offered by those who had been spared.
It falls to the lot of few men to perform a service so unselfish, and
the American Congress can honor itself no more by any single act than
by writing into its laws the gratitude we feel toward this modest and
kindly man.

“The lessons of this hour are, indeed, fruitless and its precepts
ill-conceived if rules of action do not follow hard upon the day of
reckoning. Obsolete and antiquated shipping laws should no longer
encumber the parliamentary records of any government, and over-ripe
administrative boards should be pruned of dead branches and less
sterile precepts taught and applied.”
