As with luggage sticker, boarding cards were usually sent with the passengers' tickets. These cards had to be surrendered to an officer at the gangway upon embarking the liner, and this one is the only example known to have survived. The Reverend J. Stuart Holden missed the first and only sailing of the Titanic because his wife was suddenly taken ill. After the Titanic's loss, Reverend Holden had his boarding card framed with the inscription "Who Redeemeth Thy Life From Destruction" and kept it for many years, until it passed to the permanent collection of the Merseyside Maritime Museum in Liverpool, England.
