R.M.S. Titanic Survivor. She was the daughter of William Hall and Laura M. Hall (née Powell) and sister to Emily Jane Hall. She boarded the Titanic at Southampton traveling second class (ticket number28551, £13)(13.0 GBP = $20.90. $20.00 in 1912 would be $500.00 today), accompanying her brother-in-law Rev. Bateman destined for Florida. She was 36 years old. She shared a cabin on D-Deck with Marie Jerwan. Ada survived the sinking. As she entered the lifeboat 10, Rev. Bateman called to her 'If I don't meet you again in this world, I will in the next'. He then removed his neck-tie and threw it to her as the boat was lowered. Rev. Bateman died in the sinking. She later lived with her parents at Exeter House, Hackney, London. She married Martin Luther Ball in London in 1896. She had 2 sons, Martin Luther Ball (later Reverend; b. 6 September 1897, d. ?Alabama 26 March 1989) and Edgar William Ball (b. 4 May 1899, d. Baltimore, Maryland December 1985). She moved from London to Bristol, Somerset after the death of her husband and later decided to emigrate to Jacksonville, Florida to be near her sister, Emily and brother-in-law Rev Robert James Bateman and to carry out missionary work in that area. She left her adult sons behind in England. After the disaster Ada remarried to William R. Perine and apparently lived a very happy life. She was a devout Christian woman who was known for her kindness and generosity to all she met. She later moved to Pittsfield, Massachusetts and died, on 01 October 1967 in Cockeysville, Maryland. Cause of death was leukemia. She was buried at Oak Lawn Cemetery in Baltimore, Maryland.I have included a poem by the Poet - Algernon Charles Swinburne whose surname was used to name the street where Ada once lived. The poem simply titled Sorrow, a feeling that would have been felt by Ada after her night on the Titanic. By: Algernon Charles Swinburne (1873-1909)

Sorrow

Sorrow, on wing through the world for ever,
Here and there for awhile would borrow
Rest, if rest might haply deliver
Sorrow.

One thought lies close in her heart gnawn thorough
With pain, a weed in a dried-up river,
A rust-red share in an empty furrow.

Hearts that strain at her chain would sever
The link where yesterday frets tomorrow:
All things pass in the world, but never
Sorrow.
