- "A new captain has come to Nassau, and I do not like him. Abel Bramah is his name, and he has the look of a scoundrel about him."
- ―Edward Thatch, chronicling his opinion of Bramah in his personal journal, 5 January 1714.[src]

Bramah immediately shouted for the crew to douse the flames, unaware of a hooded, shadowy figure behind him. Before Kenway could shout a warning, the figure, an Assassin named Duncan Walpole who had been a passenger aboard the British warship, leaped down and stabbed the captain in the back, killing him.[2]
