The American journalist and author Jacques Heath Futrelle made sure there was room for his wife in a lifeboat before he went down with the Titanic. He was only thirty-seven years old when he drowned, taking six or seven recently finished short stories about the original amateur sleuth, the super-intelligent genius Professor Augustus S.F.X Van Dusen, known as The Thinking Machine, into the depths.
