In an article entitled "English Ships in the Time of James I.," by R. G. Marsden, M. A., in Volume XIX of the Transactions of the Royal Historical Society, I came upon this entry: "Discovery' (or 'Hopewell,' or 'Good Hope') Hudson's ship on his last voyage; Baffin also sailed in her. " A list of references to manuscript records followed; and one of the entries, relating to the High Court of Admiralty, read: "Exam. 42. 25 Jan. 1611. trial of some of the crew for the murder of Hudson."

Note -- The varying spelling, most obvious in proper names, follows that of the documents.
