Rhoades’ seizures of the New Englander vessels trading with the Wabanaki Confederacy result in the party's apprehension by the government of Massachusetts and their trial for piracy, during which time the French regain control of the territory without any military opposition.
Rhoades is condemned to death, but he will eventually be released on condition that he leave Massachusetts.
