On April 15, 1912, The Forum reported on the sinking of the Titanic, with a North Dakota couple believed to be among the passengers on the ill-fated ship. The Canadian government received a wireless dispatch that the Titanic was sinking, and efforts were being made to reach the ship. It was reported that all passengers had been rescued safely and transferred to other ships, including the Carpathia. The Titanic had struck an iceberg off the banks of Newfoundland and was slowly sinking. Despite the distress calls and the ship’s large passenger and crew count, it was believed that no one was lost in the accident. The passenger list included notable figures such as John Jacob Astor, Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, and Benjamin Guggenheim. The White Star line officials in New York had not received any direct messages about the accident. The report described the disaster as one of the greatest to befall an ocean liner in recent years.
