Tagged to Untagged VLAN Question

So I have a pretty good understanding of vlan tagging and untagging, but what confused me recently was how the following worked in a business and I was hoping someone could shed some light on how it works.

A cable comes from a port that has the default server & workstation traffic on VLAN 10 and we plugged the other end of the cable into a new switch that we was untagged on VLAN 1. We were kind of surprised that everything started working and communicating through the connected cable right away. I would have throught we would have had to VLAN tag the entire new switch on VLAN 10.

Is there something with VLAN that I am missing on how it works in this case?
