Hello everybody! I hope I don't bother you with one more of my little questions.
I read somewhere, that a clock belonging to a postal clerk on board Titanic was found and apparently it stopped at 1.27 am (If I am wrong with the time, please do correct me!)
This fact aroused my curiosity because it means that this watch was submerged by water quite early in the sinking. But there is a problem: we don't know if this person remembered to set his watch to the April 15th time (as far as I am concerned that was 47 minutes more) If he didn't, the watch was submerged even earlier (by 12:40 pm)
So, what is the solution for this riddle? When did the postal really die and why did he die so early in the sinking?
Thank you a lot.
