Explorer Gazette
Henry Hudson was an explorer for Holland and England . The English asked him to go to the Northwest Passage to find away to India. He was a smart captain too. I think he died in the Hudson River in Canada because his crew put him and seven other crew men and his son in a small row boat with no rows. I think they got out of the boat and tried to swim to land. I think they died because the water was to cold or they got eat by a killer whale.
