L: Good afternoon, with everyone today we will present an interview never seen before, the
youngest survivor who embarked on the Titanic here, in the port of Southampton.
Good afternoon, Hazel, I am very grateful for accept the invitation to this cannel.
C: it's a great pride to be able to tell you a little more about my story.
L: Hazel, were you born here, in the same city from the port that the Titanic set sail?.
C: No. Although in many books that have written about the history of the Titanic they say that I
was born here, the data is not correct. I was born in London and of the 2208 people who were on
board, I was the youngest.
L: were your all family in the ship?
C: Yes, We were my parents and my two older sisters.
L: If it was not too much trouble. What was the motive for emigrating his family ?.
C: My father always dreamed of knowing the city of Wichita in Kansas. He saved all his life to
buy the tickets.
L: He had to save a lot because to travel on a ship with those characteristics, it took a lot of money,
right?
C: Yes. He worked very hard all his life, but he did it with enthusiasm, he wanted to fulfill a
dream.
L: Did your mother tell you how was the day they went on board?
C: My mother never wanted to tell me anything about her experiences on the Titanic until I turned
8 years old. He began to tell me what happened on the Titanic and especially how our family lived
it.
L: What was your mother's first impression of being in the port, face to face with that impressive
ship?
C: She always said that the Titanic was as if in the same port, they had built a fortress. It was
huge, in height and length. It was amazing.
L: Tell me Miss Hazel; because his parents chose their parents the Titanic to make this trip ?.
C: Anyone at that time would have chosen it. It was the largest, safest, most comfortable and
fastest ship of the world.
L: Why was it called "The Dream Boat"?
C: Because everyone dreamed of starting a new life in America. Some could fulfill their illusion;
others, like us, no.
L: How did you find out about the collision of the ship against the iceberg?
C: The truth is that we did not find out. We were all four asleep and we were awakened by the
screams of the people in the corridor. My father came out first to see what happened; He
immediately returned and took the three of us to take us to the deck. In those moments everyone
already imagined that something very serious was happening.
L: Is it true that passengers in third class had a lot of problems accessing the lifeboats' deck?
C: It is true that in those critical moments there was a lot of confusion, shouting, disorganization
but I doubt that no one would stop any passenger, of any kind, from getting on the deck of the
lifeboats.
L: Hazel, his family consisted of four people and three were saved. How did it happen?.
C: My parents were young. My mother was very pretty and she, always in jest, used to tell you
that her beauty and sympathy gave way to the lifeboat.
L: I know you want to finish, that you may be tired, but allow me one last question. What is
certain that the last piece they played before sinking the boat was the religious song "Cerca de ti
Señor"?
C: In relation to this there are different versions. Some survivors said that the last piece they heard
was a waltz, others that a polka, most, indeed, said it was the religious song "Close to you Lord",
although many declared that the uproar was such, that from the boats, It was impossible to hear
anything.

L: With this we conclude the interview with Mrs. Hazel, survivor of the terrible collision with the
iceberg.
Traducción español
L: Buenas tardes, con todos hoy presentaremos una entrevista jamás antes vista, se encuentra con
nosotros la sobreviviente más joven que embarcó en el Titanic aquí mismo, en el puerto de
Southampton, el día 10 de abril de 1912.
L: Buenas tardes, Hazel, estoy muy agradecida por aceptar la invitación a este canal.
C: De nada, es un enorme orgullo poder contarle un poco más sobre mi historia.
L: Hazel, ¿usted nació aquí, en la misma ciudad desde el puerto que salió el Titanic?
C: No. Aunque en muchos libros que han escrito sobre la historia del Titanic dicen que yo nací
aquí, el dato no es correcto. Yo nací en Londres, el día 2 de febrero de 1911, de las 2208 personas
que íbamos a bordo, yo era la más joven.
L: Embarcó toda su familia?
C: si, Ibamos mis padres y mis dos hermanas mayores.
L: Si no fuera mucha molestia . Cuál fue el motivo porque emigraba su familia?.
C: Mi padre siempre soñó viajar y poder conocer la ciudad de Wichita en Kansas. El ahorró
durante toda su vida para poder comprar los boletos del barco.
L: Tuvo que ahorrar mucho porque para viajar en un barco de esas características hacía falta
bastante dinero ¿no es cierto?.
C: Si. Trabajó muy duro durante toda su vida, pero lo hacía con ilusión, quería cumplir un sueño.
Pero permítame aclararle que viajábamos en el Titanic en tercera clase, no en primera.
L: Le contó su madre como fue el día en que subieron a bordo?
C: Mi madre nunca quiso contarme nada acerca de sus experiencias en el Titanic hasta que yo
cumplí 8 años. En ese momento, cuando me anunciaba que pensaba casarse de nuevo, comenzó
a relatarme lo sucedido en el Titanic y en especial cómo lo vivió nuestra familia.
L: Cual fue la primera impresión de su madre al encontrarse en el puerto, frente a frente con aquel
barco tan impresionante?
C: Ella siempre dijo que el Titanic era como si en el mismo puerto, hubiesen construido una
fortaleza. Era enorme, en altura y longitud. Era sorprendente.
L: Cuénteme Srta Hazel; porque sus padres eligieron sus padres el Titanic para realizar este viaje?.
C: Cualquier persona en aquel momento lo hubiese elegido. Era el barco más grande, más seguro,
más confortable y más rápido del mundo.
L: Por qué le llamaban “El Barco de los Sueños”?
C: Porque todos soñaban en comenzar una nueva vida en América. Algunos pudieron cumplir su
ilusión; otros, como nosotros, no.
L: Como se enteraron del choque del barco contra el iceberg?
C: Lo cierto es que no nos enteramos. Estábamos los cuatro dormidos y nos despertaron los gritos
de la gente en el pasillo. Salió primero mi padre para ver qué pasaba; enseguida regresó y nos
cogió a los tres para llevarnos a cubierta. En esos momentos ya todo el mundo se imaginaba que
algo muy grave estaba pasando.
L: ¿Es verdad que los pasajeros de tercera clase tuvieron muchos problemas para acceder a la
cubierta de los botes salvavidas?.
C: Es cierto que en aquellos momentos críticos hubo mucha confusión, gritos, desorganización
pero dudo que nadie impidiese a ningún pasajero, de ninguna clase, subir a la cubierta de los botes
salvavidas.
C: Hazel, su familia constaba de cuatro personas y se salvaron tres. ¿Como ocurrió?.
Mis padres eran jóvenes. Eran ingleses. Mi madre era muy guapa y ella, siempre en broma, solía
contar que su belleza y su simpatía, le abrió paso al bote salvavidas.
L: Ya sé que quiere terminar, que puede estar cansada, pero permítame una última pregunta. Que
hay de cierto en que la última pieza que tocaron antes de hundirse el barco fuese la canción
religiosa “Cerca de ti Señor”?
C: En relación a esto hay diferentes versiones. Unos supervivientes dijeron que la última pieza
que escucharon fue un vals, otros que una polca, la mayoría, efectivamente, dijeron que era la
canción religiosa “Cerca de ti Señor”, aunque muchos declararon que el alboroto era tal, que desde
los botes, era imposible escuchar nada.
L: Con esto concluimos la entrevista con la señora Hazel, sobreviviente del terrible choque con
el iceberg.
