Went to India in 1847. On June 1, 1849, at the Sakkar station, he did not appear on parade and was found in bed with two ribs broken, bruised from head to foot. It was thought that he had been sleep walking, had fallen down a cliff from the veranda and had somehow crawled back to bed, but after his death the bungalow remained unoccupied for many years and was referred to by the natives as 'Murder House.'
