According to University of Toronto/Roll of Service 1914-1918(publ. 1921), "At Passchendaele his battalion had been for three days in the attack and he had served with great skill and courage in command of his company. On October 30th (1917) he was hit by a sniper, but kept on for some time until forced to drop out. He insisted on walking to the dressing station as so many needed to be carried. He had almost reached a place of safety when he was struck by a shell and died almost immediately."
