0:51:50 > 0:51:57.
0:52:07 > 0:52:09My father was a doctor,
0:52:09 > 0:52:11and a patient actually remarked
0:52:11 > 0:52:15that he seemed to have a lot of papers sitting on his desk
0:52:15 > 0:52:16and no paperweight.
0:52:16 > 0:52:19My father had absolutely no idea
0:52:19 > 0:52:20that this would be the object
0:52:20 > 0:52:22that the patient would then bring in to him.
0:52:22 > 0:52:27The patient's brother had been a French polisher on the Titanic,
0:52:27 > 0:52:29where he had got the leftover piece of wood
0:52:29 > 0:52:33from a chair rail in one of the state rooms.
0:52:33 > 0:52:36And in the centre of it, there is a rivet.
0:52:36 > 0:52:40My father was asked if he would mind lending this for exhibitions,
0:52:40 > 0:52:42which he was only too glad to do.
0:52:42 > 0:52:45This has gone from being scrap steel and wood
0:52:45 > 0:52:49to a travelling memento seen all over Northern Ireland.
0:52:49 > 0:52:52My father must have been held in high esteem
0:52:52 > 0:52:56for a patient to give him a piece of the Titanic.
