Titanic Passenger's Letter Expected to Fetch £30,000 at Auction
A poignant letter written by 16-year-old Thomas Cupper Mudd aboard the Titanic just days before its sinking is set to fetch tens of thousands of pounds at auction. The letter, sent from the ship's final port of call in Queenstown, Ireland, describes the vessel as a 'magnificent palace' and speaks of the excitement of life on board, despite acknowledging rough weather conditions. Thomas reassures his mother about the ship's stability while expressing his enjoyment of the luxurious surroundings and newfound friendships. Tragically, he was among the youngest victims lost in the disaster, with his body never identified. The letter, adorned with the White Star Line emblem, is considered a rare piece of history and a lasting testament to the Titanic tragedy. Auction house Forum Auctions highlights the letter's significance, emphasizing the emotional connection it creates to one of history's most infamous maritime disasters.
