The Evening Sun, April 15, 1912

The lead story of April 15, 1912, begins:

The White Star liner Titanic, having transferred her passengers to the Parisian and Carpathia, was at 2 o’clock this afternoon being towed to Halifax by the Virginian of the Allan line.

The Virginian passed a line to the Titanic as soon as the passengers had been transferred, and the latest word received by wireless was that there was no doubt that the new White Star liner would reach port.

Agents of the White Star line at Halifax have been ordered to have wrecking tugs sent out to aid the Virginian with her tow into port.
