 Inglefield and eleven others escaped aboard the pinnace, though otherwise the ship's complement of some six hundred men was lost.Subsisting on a few bottles of French cordials, some spoilt bread, ship's biscuit and rainwater wrung out into a bailing cup, the survivors successfully navigated to Faial Island in the Azores after sixteen days of the most terrible privation that saw one of them, Thomas Matthews, die the day before they reached land.On returning to England and the court martial usual in such cases, the survivors were acquitted.
