Arrested and convicted he escaped to London where he came into contact with Karl Marx. In 1852 Barthélmy fought the last fatal duel in England. In 1854 he started work for George Moore, manufacturer of soda water and in 1855, after an argument, perhaps an attempt at blackmail, he shot and killed Moore and another, Charles Collard, a neighbouring green grocer and ex-policeman who tried to stop him escaping. Barthélmy was hanged publicly at Newgate on 22 January 1855.
