SURVIVOR OF TITANIC DIES AT 93 IN CANADA

Bertha Marshall, a survivor of the 1912 sinking of the Titanic, has died. She was 93.

She and her mother were on their way to Oregon from Aberdeen, Scotland, when the ship sank after hitting an iceberg in the North Atlantic.

In a 1985 interview, she said she remembered being awakened by her mother and told to say her prayers because the ship was in trouble. She said her most poignant memory of the tragedy was that none of the lifeboats was fully loaded. - Associated Press
