Killed at the Battle of Nablus. Wikipedia article about the battle says: "Strong Ottoman rearguards were encountered by the 53rd Division throughout the day which substantially slowed progress. At 04:40, after a ten-minute bombardment the 160th Brigade attacked Kh. Jibeit, but was counter-attacked at 08:00 by a battalion of the Ottoman 109th Regiment, which drove them back with heavy losses. By 11:00, the 158th Brigade was half way towards its objective 2,000 yards (1,800 m) south of Kh. Birket el Qusr, but could not breach the defences without artillery support. However, between 12:25 and 12:45 the 160th Brigade succeeded in recapturing Kh. Jibeit and at 15:00 the 159th Brigade captured Ras et Tawil."
Kh. Jibeit is an ancient ruin about 7 km south east of Shiloh.
