The violin played by the bandmaster ofthe Titanic as the oceanliner sank hasbeen unearthed, a British auction housesaid Friday. Survivors of the Titanic havesaid they remember the band, led byWallace Hartley, playing on deck evenas passengers boarded lifeboats afterthe ship hit an iceberg.
Hartley’s violin was believed lost in the1912 disaster, but auctioneers HenryAldridge & Son say an instrument un-earthed in 2006 and has undergone rig-orous testing and proven to be Hartley’s.
The auction house spent the past sevenyears and thousands of pounds deter-mining the water-stained violin’s origins,consulting numerous experts includinggovernment forensic scientists and Ox-ford University.
The auction house said the rose woodinstrument has two long cracks on itsbody, but is “incredibly well-preserved”despite its age and exposure to the sea.It estimated the violin is worth six fig-ures.
Hartley was one of the 1,517 people
who perished when the Titanic struck aniceberg 565 kilometres south of New-foundland on April 15, 1912.
Some reports at the time suggestedHartley’s corpse was found fullydressed with his instrument strapped tohis body, though there was also specu-lation the violin floated off and was lostat sea.
Henry Aldridge and Son said it re-searched the violin’s story with a Hartleybiographer as the instrument underwentforensic testing, uncovering documentsthat showed Hartley was found with alarge leather valise strapped to him andthe violin inside.The violin apparently was returned toHartley’s grieving fiancée, the auctionhouse said, and later ended up in thehands of the Salvation Army beforebeing given to a violin teacher and ulti-mately Henry Aldridge & Son.
Testing by the U.K. Forensic ScienceService showed corrosion depositswere considered “compatible with im-mersion in sea water,” while a silver ex-pert studied a plate on the violin’s neckto determine if it fit the time profile.

AND RICE CASSEROLE
crockery cookers have 3 settings - high, medium,and keep warm.
Don't use the "keep warm" setting instead of the"cooking" settings for extended periods. Some-times the high setting will cause overcooking andyou will lose the benefits of using a slow cooker.The high setting is best used to bring food up toa safe temperature quickly before beginning slowcooking at the "medium" or "normal" setting. Ifyour Crock-Pot is causing liquids to boil, lower thesetting or meat will become dry and tough.

. . .”Ring”went up to $130,000 euros, then pacingitself to $450,000. Several bouts oflaughter were heard during the biddingas seen through the auction house’s livewebsite. Right before the hammer fell at630,000 euros someone pushed it to640,000 which produced more laughter.
The sale was held Sunday to honor the250th anniversary of Joséphine’s birth,according to reports. The ring was de-scribed as modest by the auction housefrom someone who had not yet acquiredgreat wealth and power. However, it gaina lot of international interest based on itshistorical significance.
Empress Joséphine was 32 years old,six years older than Napoleon, and awidow with a son and daughter at thetime of their marriage on March 9, 1796.According to Napoleon's memoirs writ-ten at St. Helena, he met Josephinewhen her son Eugene came to ask himfor the right to keep his father's sword.
Napoleon said yes, and Josephine in-
vited him to her apartment in Paris to
thank him. Napoleon was immediately
smitten, and within the first couple
months of their relationship had fallen
completely in love with her. He wrote
about this in his memoirs:"Everyoneknows the extreme grace of the EmpressJosephine and her sweet and attractivemanners. The acquaintance soon be-came intimate and tender, and it was notlong before we married."
The marriage didn't last, but "Josephine
continued to treasure the ring and gave it
to her daughter Hortense, later Queen of
Holland, through whom it came down to
her son, Napoleon III and his wife Em-
press Eugene.
Napoleon III, the last monarch of France,
was the nephew and heir of Napoleon. It
was sold during Sunday’s auction of the
“Collection of Prince Victor Napoleon
and Princess Clementine of Belgium.”
