 Furthermore, Sir John died in 1875, one year before the appearance of Kingston's novel, which has led some historians to speculate that Kingston had agreed not to publish his account while Sir John was still alive precisely because his scandalous account contains much that is true.In 1904 C. Litton Falkiner mentioned "piratical spoils" among the "Ouzel's" cargo in his "Illustrations of Irish History and Topography".James Joyce alludes to the "Ouzel Galley" in his final work "Finnegans Wake" (1939)
