Of the 2,201 people on board, there were 711 survivors and 1,490 deaths, breaking down to 37.5% of 1st class, 58.6% of 2nd class, and 74.8% of 3rd class. Two days after the sinking of the Titanic, in 1912, a boat left the Port of Halifax in Canada with a foreboding cargo: blocks of ice, embalming products, and coffins. Two weeks later, the Mackay-Bennett returned with 190 cadavers removed from the Atlantic Ocean. (440 bodies were found right after the shipwrecking.) Most of the bodies went unclaimed and were buried in Halifax. In the months following the disaster, the entire world paid homage to the memory of those who perished with the ocean liner. Numerous commemorative plaques, statues, fountains, and monuments were erected in memory of the victims. Still today, new memorials have been dedicated to them.
