silentcuriosity: John Hume -Violinist on the Titanic that played until the end John Hume, (left), in the last known photo taken of him aboard RMS Carmania.  One grave in Halifax’s Fairview Cemetery that often gets special notice belongs to John Law Hume - a 21 year-old-violinist who played in the ships band and performed for passengers until the very end.  John was an accomplished life-long violist, who hailed from Dumfies, England. I visited the cemetery on the Titanic Memorial Cruise, and there was a magnificent floral tribute from his great-great niece (and author of a recent book about him) - it included a violin model. I dig out the photos later.
