In addition to the above verdict the jury Issaed the folowing to the Press "We, the jury, extend our heartiest good-will to Graham Coghlan, second officer of the wrecked Rio, for his heroic actions and conduct during the ter rible disaster."
Regarding the position of the Wildmans when the survivors left and their probable fate accounts differ.
William Brander, one of the surviving cabin passengers, gives the clearest account. He says that when he ran on dock he saw Wildman, with his wife and children and their nurse looking over the side into the beat manned by Dr. O'Neill, which was filling with water and could not be cleared at the time. Later he saw Captain Ward take Mrs. Wildman and the aures to the port side, sezon, the vessel, and put them into another bout. Then Brander jumped and saw no more of them.
