united kingdom - A 'prophetic' letter written by a Titanic passenger, Colonel Archibald Gracie, was auctioned for a record €350,000 in the United Kingdom, detailing his experience before the ship's tragic collision with an iceberg.

Titanic Passenger's 'Prophetic' Letter Sold at Auction

Colonel Archibald Gracie penned a letter on April 10, 1912, expressing his thoughts as he boarded the Titanic in Southampton, just days before its fateful iceberg encounter.

Historic Auction

The letter, purchased by an anonymous buyer, fetched a price five times higher than expected. Gracie's account of the sinking, later detailed in his book 'The truth about the Titanic', made this letter highly sought-after.

Survival and Legacy

Although Gracie survived the disaster, he suffered from health issues and passed away in 1912. His book, published in 1913, remains a significant account of the Titanic tragedy.
