Interesting "Duer was part of a conspiracy of equally avaricious aristocrats. Like all those who would follow them in the centuries to come, they were way over extended and crashed. New Yorkers were so outraged at their behavior that they chased Duer through the streets, nearly disemboweled him until he was arrested and taken to debtor's prison where he died in 1799."
