Hmmmmmm.....disgruntled woman wanting revenge on the person she sees as the one to blame.It's part of the Captains duty to entertain & mingle with passengers so would explain presence in saloon,but then why was she there as women were frowned upon for being in that kind of establishment no matter where in those days.Just because he was there doesn't mean he was drinking...I used to go into pubs a lot but rarely drank as I was usually driving. No doubt it will make a fortune & another round of mud-slinging at the captain will happen....strange it has suddenly appeared on the 100th anniversary just when it is bound to make loads of cash.

I thought the sudden find a little odd too, and smacks of waiting for this point in time. It's always easy to point the finger when the target is unable to defend themselves.

The captain of the Titanic (or any other liner at that time) mingling with 2nd class passengers in the saloon bar! highly unlikely!
