Description: There are 3 telegrams which are inextricably linked to J. Bruce Ismay, managing director of the white Star Line 1.The Baltic telegram which Ismay carried around in his pocket on the day of the accident, proudly showing it to passengers. 2. The regrets telegram. Actually this telegram was the first “official” report that the Titanic had sank, with great loss of life. It was sent by Ismay from Carpathia. 3. The Escape Telegram. This telegram also sent by Ismay/ “Yamsi” from Carpathia to New York and the White Star Line offices asking for a suit of clothes and to have the Cedric booked for passage for himself and Titanic crew back to England immediately. Telegram #1 At 1:42pm the Titanic received an ice-warning from the Baltic, the message was delivered to Captain Smith, and he talked about it with Ismay. Ismay then put the ice-warning in his pocket and later showed it to other passengers, then the Captain asked for the return of the warning, and he posted it in the chart room at 7:15! 'Greek steamer Athenia reports passing icebergs and large quantities of field ice today in latitude 41*51* N, longitude 49*52* W wish you and Titanic all success. Commander' Telegram #2 This is the telegram that officially broke the news to the world. This is the text of that telegram: In it, Mr Ismay wrote: ‘Deeply regret [to] advise you Titanic sank this morning fifteenth after collision [with] iceberg resulting serious loss [of] life. Further particulars later.’ Telegram #3 The final telegram is sent from the Carpathia, by Ismay, to the White Star Line offices in New York 'Most desirable Titanic crew aboard Carpathia should be returned home earliest moment possible / propose returning her myself please send outfit of clothes including shoes for me to Cedric / have nothing of my own.'
