Pen and ink on letterhead of Coman's Hotel, 21 & 23 Castle Hill Avenue, 12 pages, 15 lines per page (approx. 750 words). 4to. "I got an awful smash in the back from the water and was thrown about thirty feet on my face. I got up and ran down stairs people were pouring up from the decks below and I caught sight of Mother. I ran up to her and kissed her goodbye, then I lost her for a while . I though to myself I havent much of chance if I don't get a life belt so I thought a minute and then rushed down to my own stateroom and grabbed my own belt. . I had to hang on the side of my bed to get a hold of it. The lights were practically all out." Dramatic and detailed account by a survivor of the sinking of the Lusitania. Allan Beattie, 18, of Winnipeg, travelling Second Cabin with his mother Grace, was sitting on the hurricane deck when the ship was struck. He gave away the first life belt he found, then went down three decks to his stateroom to get his own life belt. Returning topside despite "a pretty hard time", he met his mother again. "She says, 'I am not nervous I dont think there is much danger do you?' I replied that 'It looked about as bad as it could' and I told her to take my life belt but she refused, I made her put it on after promising that I would get another. I kissed her goobye again and just as I got the top straps of her lifebelt tied, the boat went down. I was send sliding the whole width of the deck." Allan was flung free, and was soon picked up by a life boat. He describes how the boat soon became perilously crowded. When another boat was located, survivors were shifted across. In due course his boat was rescued by the Flying Fish, and the survivors were brought to Queenstown. Beattie (whose first name is given as Allen in the New York Times list of survivors), writes his correspondent that "Mother is gone, and altho we have not heard of her I don't think that she can be alive." A remarkable, detailed narrative by a survivor of one of the most notorious maritime disasters of the twentieth century, written in the immediate aftermath of the event, by a young man whose actions show proof of calmness in the tumult. Beattie appears to have been one of the Lusitania survivors who was profoundly traumatized by the incident. He was rejected from military service because of poor eyesight and was reported to have suffered a series of breakdowns beginning in 1920, and was unable to hold steady employment. Old folds, large pinhole in top center margin. Old envelope of Lewis-Clark Hotel, Lewiston, Idaho, with ?Allan Beatty?s letter? in ink. Fine.

30,5 x 37 cm. (image), letterpress text in 2 columns in German below, Gustav Kühn, Neuruppin (1915). = The image shows the gigantic steamship listing and bursting into flames after being hit by a German torpedo. In the lower right, the periscope and bow of the German submarine are visible in the sea. Although this was vehemently denied at the time of the disaster, it later emerged that the Lusitania contained a huge amount of war ammunition for the British Army and other contraband. This resulted in a massive second explosion after the torpedo struck the ship. The Lusitania was indeed a legitimate war target for Germany. The Lusitania was operated by the Cunard Line. Lusitania entered service in 1907, five years before Titanic, and was one of the world's largest and fastest ocean liners. The Titanic was designed somewhat later, together with her sister ships Olympic and Britannic, to compete with Cunard's Lusitania and Mauretania. Lusitania was torpedoed by the German submarine U-20 off the coast of Ireland on 7 May 1915, during the First World War, killing nearly 1,200 people.…
