After the mutiny, Captain Hudson's shallop broke out oars and tried to keep pace with the Discovery for some time.
The week was spent in exploring the bay with a shallop, or small boat, and "they found a good entrance between two headlands" (the Narrows) "and thus entered on the September 11 into as fine a river as can be found."
Hudson and the other seven aboard the shallop were never seen again, and their fate is unknown.
