By this time, it was clear to those on "Titanic" that the ship was indeed sinking and there would not be enough lifeboat places for everyone.

The ship is thoroughly equipped and everyone on her will be saved." Charlotte Collyer's husband Harvey called to his wife as she was put in a lifeboat, "Go, Lottie! For God's sake, be brave and go! I'll get a seat in another boat!"
