Henry Hudson.

Beyond the fact that Henry Hudson
was English nothing is known of his
birth. In 1907 Hudson sailed from
London in a tiny vessel-the crew con
sisted of ten men and a boy-to discov-
err the Northwest passage. On this voy-
age the navigator passed the eightieth
degree of latitude. Two years later
Hudson sailed for North America and
discovered the Hudson river, up which
he sailed 80 miles. In 1910 Hudson
sailed in an English ship named the
Discovery and discovered Hudson
strait and Hudson bay, where he win
tered. The crew mutinied and set Hud-
son, his son John and seven infirm sail
ors adrift in boat. Nothing has ever
since been heard of the great sailor
who gave his name to New York s
river
