During the sinking, this steward assisted Steward 3 in keeping the steerage passengers down. When the gate was opened for women, the reception steward let a woman and a man trough before he realized the order was women only. He pushed back another man, while the seaman with axe punched a few others, a lift attendant helped in closing the gate, and Steward 3 drew his pistol.
