This ending is loosely based on the life of Walter Chaloner. Chaloner was the Sheriff of Newport for seven years. In 1776, he was banished from Rhode Island for refusing to sign an oath of allegiance to Patriots. According to his memoir, he became the leader of a spy ring. It is unknown how he ended up in Nova Scotia, but he died in New Brunswick in 1792.
