During the Jacobite rising of 1745, Bradstreet was employed by government officials to act as a spy among the rebels. His description of a \"third force\" of 9,000 men in Northampton ready to fight the Scots (a force which did not in fact exist) is credited with persuading Bonnie Prince Charlie's army to turn back at a council of war in Derby in 1745, effectively ending the Jacobite cause."@en . . . . . . .
