Biography
Early Life
Duncan Little was originally from Ireland, and was the youngest son of a particularly large family. Shaun Hastings in the present day would go on to joke that this was confusing, as the family name was Little. Duncan entered the priesthood at a young age, and was sent to Africa as a missionary in 1756.
Leaving Africa
Little spent several years in Africa, but in 1760 he returned to Ireland, leaving the Priesthood entirely. The reasons are unknown as to why he left the Church, and the Vatican had locked down their records entirely.
Living in Boston
Little spent a time as a passenger on a ship to Boston in 1763. From his letters, it seems his family more or less drove him away over his split with the Catholic Church. Little settled in Boston's North End, where he gained a reputation as a good mediator - fair and less expensive than going before the local judiciary. When he wasn't spending time at the local pub, he was helping people to solve their problems - generally by talking them down from a fight.
