The year is 1912. A giant ship gleams in Englands Southampton harbor. Titanics looming shadow makes even the most powerful passenger feel small. No ship this big has ever been built.

The huge ship was built with safety in mind. Watertight walls called bulkheads are designed to keep water from flowing from one part of the ship to another. The ship also has 15 watertight doors. Newspapers say that Titanic is practically unsinkable.

Your stateroom is as elegant as a grand hotel. Carved oak lines the walls. Some mirrors are trimmed in gold. Every stateroom has electric light and heat. It makes you feel like royalty.

Astor is an old friend. You havent seen him since he left for Europe four months ago with his new bride. This Allison fellow seems interesting, too. He speaks with pride of his two young children, who are also aboard. Separately, both men invite you to join them a few nights later for dinner.

It is Sunday, April 14, your fifth night on Titanic. You join the Allisons for dinner in the first-class dining room. Hudson Allison introduces you to his wife, Bess, and 2-year-old daughter, Loraine. Normally, children arent present in the dining room, but Mrs. Allison wanted Loraine to see the beautiful room.

A few minutes later, the Allisons maids, Alice Cleaver and Sarah Daniels, walk up to the table. Alice holds the Allisons baby son, Trevor. Sarah takes Loraines hand, and the women leave to put the children to bed.

Also at the table are two of Hudson Allisons friends from Canada, Harry Molson and Arthur Peuchen. Soon, the talk turns to the Titanic.

Ive crossed the ocean 40 times, but never quite as comfortably as on this ship, Peuchen says. Theres only one thing that worries me.

Whats that? you ask.

Im not sure that Captain Smith is up to the job, he replies. Hes too old, and his record isnt spotless. I dont know if Id trust him with my life.

Dont worry, my friend, Hudson Allison says to Peuchen. The journey has gone well so far. In a few days, youll be home with your family.

After a delicious meal and several hours of conversation, it is time for the night to end. You shake hands with the other men and head to your stateroom. You quickly dress for bed and fall asleep.

Suddenly, someone knocks loudly on your stateroom door. How long have you been asleep? Your says its midnight just one hour. The steward at your door calls out, Im sorry to inform you that the captain has ordered all on deck with life jackets.

On Sunday, April 14, you arrive for dinner with the Astors. John Jacob Astor greets you in the entryway to the dining room. He is dressed neatly in a tuxedo, and his beautiful young bride is wearing an elegant dress.
