Just prior to the accident he went forward to smoke a cigar. He was seen on the deck after the fire broke out, by an acquaintance, and has not been seen or heard of since.

The body of Hilard R Hulburd, of Great Neck, Long Island, was secured by Patrick Doran, a diver, off Ward's Island. The body was identified by his brother, L P Hulburd. When last seen alive, Hilard R. Hulburd was making heroic efforts to save his niece, Miss Lena Bronfield, from drowning. Mr Hulburd was 52 years of age, and was born in Ohio.
