“A year after the SS Kamloops disappeared, a message in a bottle was found across Lake Superior, over 150 miles away from Isle Royale. The handwritten note was penned by Alice Bettridge, a young assistant stewardess on the ship. The mangled paper told of the wreck and how she made it to shore. She wrote, "I am the last one left alive, freezing and starving to death on Isle Royale. I just want mom and dad to know my fate.”
