I believe you are mistaken on the date the titanic sank. Years ago I
purchased a book called "the only way to cross." The book claims the
Titanic sailed from Southampton on April 10th 1912, and the collision
tooke place at 11:40 p.m. the evening of April 14th, so April 15th is
the date the Titanic sank! The 15th is the date that is celebrated with
flowers in the sea in Southhampton.

You are correct. Titanic struck the iceberg at 11:40 pm on April 14,
1912 and sank at 2:20 am on April 15. Sailed out of Southampton on
April 10.
