An account of his death is given on the website of the Beaumaris lifeboat at www.beaumarislifeboat.com/history/penmonhistory.htm in the history of the Penmon lifeboat.
"What proved to be the last service by this lifeboat, come on the 23rd. March 1868. She was launched when the brig Jabez of Scarborough stranded on the Dutchman Bank in heavy seas and a north westerly gale. After a tremendous struggle the lifeboat got alongside and rescued 5 of the brig's crew, her Master refusing to leave. As the lifeboat pulled clear of the vessel, she was hit by an enormous wave and was capsized. She quickly righted herself and the lifeboat - men and the crew from the brig, scrambled back on board. Another 3 men were then picked up by the lifeboat from the brig's own boat and all were landed at Penmon.
Later, the Master of the Jabez was drowned as he tried to get ashore on his own in a small dinghy."
