Praise For Unsworth Officer Of La Champagne
Seventy saloon and cabin passengers of the belated Steamship La Champagne reached Grand Central Station at 6 last night after from Halifax. Five to six hundred people lined the station to welcome them. Passengers praised Capt Pierot and officers for their conduct as the ship drifted after cables parted. Third Officer Unsworth and his crew were hailed for launching a sail boat to bring aid. A purse of 6 000 francs was raised for the crew, though many felt money cannot repay their heroism. Other passengers described limited meal reductions but no famine risk aboard. Additional La Champagne travelers were to arrive by special train from Halifax. The ship was to be towed to port for repairs and cargo discharge.
