Did 'E' tell you I have got a white hat? And a new dress. Now, I want a new coat but they are so expensive. Do you really think my fur coat looks a mess?' then referring to her aunt before asking, 'What does the girl who works at "Firths" say about me?

* Titanic Relief Fund. A cheque (No. K. 18642) from The Capital & Counties Bank Ltd, for six guineas to Mrs Ada Mary West, 28 April 1917, with the Titanic Relief Fund ink stamp and three signatures and payee name in ink to verso, with blue pencil marks and Barclays Bank red ink stamp, 10.5 x 20 cm QTY: (1)NOTE:Edwy Arthur West (1875-1912), a Cornishman, married Ada Mary Worth in 1905 and had two daughters. They decided to emigrate to Florida with their two daughters to start a fruit culture business. West purchased ticket number 34651, costing £27.15s and the family embarked on the Titanic at Southampton on 10 April 1912 as second-class passengers.Ada West later recalled the events of the sinking: 'We were all asleep when the collision took place but were only jolted in our berths - my husband and children not even being awakened and it was only the hurrying of passengers outside the cabin that caused alarm. The steward bade us all get up and dress thoroughly with plenty of warm things. Arthur placed lifebelts upon the children and carried them to the boat deck. I followed carrying my handbag. After seeing us safely into the lifeboat Arthur returned to the cabin for a thermos of hot milk, and, finding the lifeboat let down he reached it by means of a rope, gave the flask to me, and with a farewell, returned to the deck of the ship'.Ada also recalled male interlopers in her boat who had hidden under the women's skirts; the men had to be asked to stop lighting cigarettes in fear of the women's skirts being set alight. She also stated that she did not fear for her husband's safety until after the ship had sank and she heard the cries of those in the water. A steward in the boat tried to soften the mood by shouting 'Pull up men -- they're singing in the other boats. Give them a shout!'. The boat's occupants apparently made enough of a din to drown out at least a bit of the carnage happening not far away. As day broke Ada stated that she saw no wreckage or bodies but could see many icebergs. Rescued by Carpathia, Ada and her two daughters were treated kindly. She later recalled another survivor scoff that it was wrong that Titanic's surviving officers were feted by the passengers and crew of their rescue ship, allegedly being treated to champagne in the first class dining saloon on the evening of their rescueAda West died in St Vincent's Nursing Home in Plympton, Devon on 20 April 1953 aged 74. One keepsake that remained in her possession for the remainder of her life was the flask that her husband had passed to her the last time she ever saw him.Her daughter Edwyna, a Titanic survivor in her own right, was married in 1941 to Clarence Patrick Erskine-Lindop (1920-2001) who later became Permanent Secretary for the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Local Government in the Bahamas and he was made an OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) in 1977. The couple are also believed to have spent time living in Manhattan. Edwyna died in Plymouth in 1969.The paper Mining World wrote 'It is impossible to write without mention of the conduct of this heroic Cornishman who unquestionably might have saved his life had he chosen to take the place that, we suppose, was subsequently occupied by one of the women saved. Of such heroes the world is not worthy. Arthur West may be one of the least known of the Titanic heroes, but none will deny him the distinction of being one of the noblest'.There is a memorial to Arthur West, a former chorister, in Truro Cathedral placed there by his wife and children who had returned to live in Cornwall following the tragedy. See Encyclopedia Titanica (2020).
