On January 30, 1873, the iron sailing vessel Loch Earn docked in Port Adelaide, Australia, to restock and take on passengers before continuing its journey north. Less than a year later, on November 22, 1873, tragedy struck.
In thick fog at 3am, Loch Earn collided with the passenger steamship Ville du Havre while crossing the Atlantic.
The disaster claimed 226 lives, including all four daughters of American lawyer Horatio Spafford: Annie (12), Maggie (7), Bessie (4), and Tanetta (18 months). His wife, Anna, survived and, upon reaching Cardiff, Wales, sent a heartbreaking telegram to her husband: “Saved alone.”
While traveling to reunite with Anna, Horatio penned It Is Well with My Soul as his ship passed near the site where his daughters perished. The hymn went on to become a worldwide classic, sung in churches around the world.
