The collision broke the ship’s lifeboat. The crew could not run away. The ship floated for several hours. Then it drowned rapidly as the collision caused a large hole in the ship. The crew tried to save the ship. He tried to fill holes with mattresses. But the ship drowned. It killed 23 people and only three people were left.
