He was in Hong Kong during the December 1941 hostilities, and at Repulse Bay Hotel during the siege and during the early stages of his captivity became very weak - he was 83 years old - so was never sent to Stanley, He was sent to the French Hospital in early 1942 and that's probably where he died.
