The Thief
“FIRE IN THE FORWARD BAGGAGE ROOM!”
Isaac Bell raced down the grand staircase.
Captain Turner was running up the stairs, heading for the bridge, shouting orders to turn the Mauretania away from the wind to keep it from fanning the flames.
Bell ran to the fire. His prisoner was trapped in the baggage room in the bow. He had to get the man and his PS guard to safety.
The bugle shrieked the alarm. Fight fire! Fight fire!
Passengers milled. Stewards tried to calm them but had no ...answers to their frightened questions. The ship heeled, leaning away from a sharp turn that put her stern to the weather. The decks lurched. Ship’s officers bellowed into megaphones: “Passengers to the boat deck. All passengers to the boat deck.”
The stewards began pleading with people to put on their life vests.
A woman screamed.
