В начале своей карьеры в 1769–1770 гг. Дюк был одним из тридцати торговцев Старого Калабара, которые продавали рабов на корабль «Добсон» капитану Джону Поттеру. Сам Дюк продал 37 человек вместе с тысячью плодов батата, за которые заработал 4400 медных денег, что эквивалентно 1100 железным слиткам или 550 бочонкам пороха. См.: Hair Р. Е. Н.
