(Woman Tells Story of Horror “We Are Going to See Our Iceberg at Last,” Miss Bon-| nell Cried. WRITTEN FOR THE ‘sae PRESS BY MISS CAROLINE BONNELL Copyright, 1912, by the United Prose NEW YORK, April 19.—“Wel thank goodness, Nathalie, we are going to see our iceberg at last,” That—that single foolish little) sentence—was the ohe thing, of all things, that | said to my cousin, the great, beautiful Titanic wa shivering beneath her death blow. And yet it waa the most natural) remark in the world for me*to mo that Sunday midnight at the very! minute when the hand of death be-| gan pulling down its terrible cargo| of souls. For, though the world has} not come to realixe it, that was a} hidden hand—a hand so hidden that none of us suspected it for an in stant, or how strong and how cruel it. was, In less than two hours after, It gave a quick, final jerk, and the Titanic of vessels sank be neath the swells. My cousin, Nathalle Wick, and f were lying in our berths half asleep when the blow came, It was te jrific, For a second the whole boa just stood stock still in ite swt tracks, and thea it gave a great shiver all through. After that ev erything was deathly quiet for a minute. Then, “Oh, she hae hit an ice berg,” came ringing through the For 10 minutes after the blow Na-/ thalle and | tay in bed and die cussed whether or not we would get [the way over, but had been told that lit was probably too early in the We just slipped on our wraps and When we got out on the deck everything was an calm as an August afternoon.

It was bitterty cold outside. When ) ¥e got on deck uncle and aunt were) }there, and there were crowds of people standing around. Nobody seemed very much excited. Every one was talking and it seemed to be the general idea that we would soon be ordered back to bed. Just then an officer came up to! us and sald we should go up to the! next deck. i Mrs. John Jacob Astor was there, sitting in a steamer chair. Her!) husband, Col. Astor, was beside her and her maid was helping her to finish her dressing. . Whatever damage was done to the vessel was done beneath her water line, we knew, for above she) was in perfect condition, She had hit the berg alonguide, we found out, and not in front There was very littie discipline fin fact there was practically none. } | People had to be bexged to get into ithe lifeboats.

In it, Ithough it would have held more, were 20 women, two sailors and a steward. The latter were to do the rowing. As we took to the oars, ithe officer shouted to us to row lover to a distant light and land there, sending the boat back for others. i ‘@ watched the other boats be-| % lowered as we got under way. lAnd then, in a few minutes, we) noticed that the Titanic began to list more heavily, After a while |when we were s considerable die |} tance away, a whole deck of lights, |f lthe lowest deck was snuffed ont.

Then the | water reached the port holes, and as it rushed into her there was one |great explosion and another, and) the ship left the horizon unbroken.
