Fluent in Sinhala language Sinhala , he was the intermediary between the British Governor and the disaffected Kandyan chiefs who were intriguing to sell out the king, Sri Vikrama Rajasinha of Sri Lanka Sri Vikrama Rajasinha . D Oyly is credited with drafting the Kandyan Convention of March 2, 1815 which set out the terms of the accession. He was made a baronet and chose to stay in Kandy, eventually dying there. A Briton who visited Kandy before 1815 had described him as living like a Cingalese hermit . His earlier association with a woman poet, Gajaman Nona , in Matara, Sri Lanka Matara led to some speculation.
