After the loss of 'Titanic' the first- and second-class passengers formed a committee to raise a general fund - to aid destitute third-class passengers, to present a cup to Captain Rostron of 'Carpathia' and medals to her crew. Molly Brown (Margaret Brown 1867-1932) chair of the committee presented the awards.
