This undated family photograph shows Dr John Edward Simpson. The descendants of Dr. Simpson, who died on the Titanic, said on March 12, 2012 they are delighted that a letter he penned days before the ship sank will return to his hometown, Belfast. Simpsons family had appealed for a benefactor to buy the note, which was put up for auction in Long Island, New York. It did not meet the reserve price of 34,000, Philip Weiss Auctions said, but a buyer who did not want to be named then bought it for an undisclosed sum after hearing about the familys campaign to bring the letter to Belfast for public display. Simpsons great-nephew John Martin said the note will soon return to the Northern Irish city, where the Titanic was built. Press Association -
