Text Appearing Before Image:
ers. James Humphries, a quartermaster, who commanded lifeboat No. 11, told a little story that shows how these fifty lads met death. Humphries said the boys were called to their regular posts in the main cabin entry and taken in charge by their captain, a steward. They were ordered to remain in the cabin and not get in the way. Throughout the first hour of confusion and terror these lads sat quietly their benches in various parts of the firstcabin. Then, just toward the end, when the order was passed around that the ship was going down and every 106 WRECK OF THE TITANIC man was free to save himself if he kept away from the lifeboats in which the women were taken, the bellboys scattered to all parts of the ship. Humphries said he saw numbers of them smokingcigarettes and joking with the passengers. They seemed to think that their violation of the rule against smoking while on duty was a sufficient breach of discipline. Not one of them attempted to enter a lifeboat. Not one of them was saved.
