Just then a lot of wreckage came
from the ship; the whole upper deck
came off and floated around us.
"I caught hold of a few boards
with each hand and drew them close
to us and we both held to them. Af
ter we had floated for awhile I ask
ed her name and she told me she was
Ruth Hart, from Pendleton, Oregon.
"She was hopeful all the time. She
behaved nobly. She made no trouble
at all. There was a man a short dis
tance from us taking on; he was
screeching at the top of his voice.
Miss Hart spoke up and said to him,
'You just cut that out; this is no
place for that kind of work."
"We were together several hours,
it seemed to me. We quit talking.
I don't know which of us went 'to
sleep first. I was picked up between
thre and four o'clock in the morning.
Ivvas unconcious when picked up.
They told me I had been on the An
yox about two hours when I woke.
Whim I got to the hospital I inquired
for Ruth Hart.
The nurses tried to look her up.
They brought me one paper that had
her listed saved and another, lost,
alterwards they said she was at the
Vance hotel. When I got out of the
hospital I went to all other hopitals
in town and then to the telegraph
office and inquired if there had been
any inquiry about Ruth Hart, of Pen
dleton. The operator said yes, and
gave me a copy of the message from
hr uncle. I was hoping to find she
was saved. . Later I understood
her body came to San Francisco.
"I do not think she was in a life
boat. I think she stayed with the ship
until it went down. The crew did
not seem to understand how to get
the lifeboats off."
