Fright Titanic Letter Recounts Horror
The darkness and terror on the night the Titanic sank are described in a recently released letter written by survivor Laura Mabel Francatelli shortly after the disaster.

The letter, along with her official affidavit during a subsequent legal inquiry and her life preserver, will be sold at a Christie's auction on May 16. The life preserver was signed by men and women aboard the lifeboat.

I would love to have been able to interview some survivors.

What a horrible experience...
