Dear Diary

12.15 am 14^th April

As I write I’m on a lifeboat watching the Titanic sink slowly.  This is what happened.  Silently I went to bed and I heard a scraping noise then…EEEEHH!  A steward came rushing in and said lifebelts on quick, quick!

My mum, dad, brother and I leaped out of our beds, put our lifebelts on and bolted out of the room to A deck.  Everyone was running to A deck.  I asked a steward what happened and he said, “We hit an iceberg.  We’re going to sink!”

I glimpsed Annie Flynn over in the distance.  Speedily she rushed over to me.  As the 1^st class passengers were away luckily I got on a lifeboat with Annie Flynn, mum, dad and Ted.

2 am 15^th April

Now we’re watching most people from 3^rd class die.  The Titanic is down and so is Ted.  We will miss him sadly.

Ohh…in the distance, I see, I see… the Carpathia.  WE’RE SAVED!!

5.10 pm 16^th April 1913

It’s been one year since the Titanic sank and I’m still missing my brother.  This is my last diary entry.  Bye.
