On 27 February 1817, the crew of William, of Hull, Baker, master, abandoned their vessel in the Atlantic as being leaky, much damaged, and in want of provisions; she had left Hull on 28 November, bound for New York. Hyder Alley, also New York-bound, took off the crew. However, eight men from Hyder Alley, Howe, master, volunteered to try to bring William in to a port. William, with her crew from Hyder Alley, arrived at Newport, Rhode Island on 10 March.[3][4][a]
