Last year, I happened to be in United Dairy Farmers with my mother, purchasing ice cream, when I spied a particularly disturbing article in a novelty newspaper. As we all know, these papers are usually a big bunch of crap, but the front page really caught my attentions. It read: 'Titanic Baby Found Floating In LifeRing Calling For Her Mother!'
Partially interested, I picked up the magazine and read. Inside, I found something I felt horrible and quite degrading. Since this was a yr. ago, I'll try to sum up what I read:
A small child was found in the North Atlantic ocean clinging to a lifering that read: Titanic. The little girl was very much alive, and piece of paper in the child's dress pocket identified her as Loraine Alison, listed in the third class ledger as perished. But apparently, history has just been proved wrong. Loraine was traveling in third class with her parents, Hudsen and Bess, and five year old brother, Hudson. Young Hudsen was the only member of the family to survive. He was kidnapped by a first class man in order for the man to have an excuse to enter the lifeboats.
Presumably, Mr. and Mrs. Alison and their baby daughter perished. Mr. Alison's body was the only one recovered. However, this new evidence seems to disprove this theory. The ten month old child was plucked from the icy water clinging to a doll and crying for her mother and "Hudsy", most likely her brother.
That's all I recall. Anyone want to put forth some comments on all this bull?
