	In 1740, he became acquainted with [[Achilles Davenport]], who had been sent to the British colonies to the south by the [[Mentor]] of the [[West Indies Brotherhood of Assassins\|Caribbean Brotherhood]], [[Ah Tabai]], in order to establish a new [[Assassin Guilds\|branch]].

	In 1744, John accompanied Achilles to [[Quebec]] in order to locate [[Mathieu Léveillé]], a [[Slavery\|slave]] from [[Martinique]] who had been purchased by the French government to serve as an executioner and who was believed to possess knowledge regarding the First Civilization. However, due to the weather conditions, the two were delayed on their journey, and by the time of their arrival, Mathieu had passed away from an illness related to the severe cold in September 1743.<ref name="Death of the Executioner" />		In 1744, John accompanied Achilles to [[Quebec]] in order to locate [[Mathieu Léveillé]], a [[Slavery\|slave]] from [[Martinique]] who had been purchased by the French government to serve as an executioner and who was believed to possess knowledge regarding the First Civilization.

	In 1745, de la Tour journeyed to [[Louisbourg]], with Achilles and Abigail posing as his slaves, in search of a safe house owned by [[Nicolas Court]], a [[Hermeticists\|Hermeticist]] who studied the mythology of the indigenous people of the Americas. De la Tour believed that Court held valuable information that would lead them to finding Precursor sites. Although Achilles found the disguises grossly humiliating, the illusion of status that they afforded de la Tour made it vastly easier for him to connect with the people they encountered.
