There is some disagreement about his death. On account says that he was riding wildly about Camp Forbes celebrating the news that he had inherited $30,000. His horse tripped and he shot himself with his own gun. For a while there was some suspicion that he had been shot by another member of the company. He was sent to Camp Atchison for medical treatment but died before arriving there.
