The Traveler… a sad headline day…

Today I found myself in a period of time that is so familiar to all that unfortunately not much really needs to be written about it. The Tribune, Los Angeles, April 16, 1912, reported the sad headline of “Titanic Sinks; 675 Are Saved 1800 Go Down In Ship, Report” and contains many reports, photos, illustrations, and passenger lists.  While I have spent most of my travels looking for the off-the-beaten-path articles/news of the day, some days the main event is so tragic, to look for anything trivial would be inappropriate.
