These charges followed him to London as well. Calvert did support his illegitimate children, sending money to the stepfather of his heir Henry, by Hester Whalen. In 1768, another scandal befell him while at home in London. This time he was accused of abduction and rape by Sarah Woodcock. During the trial, he was tried as much by the press as he was in the courtroom.

To avoid any further disgrace, he retreated to Italy, and died in Naples in 1771. Unfortunately the many problems he created still existed for his colony. Before his death, he had made his illegitimate son Henry Harford, his heir, leaving him the province of Maryland, in America. This Edition not in O'Higgins, Irish Trials.
