He held hunting and shooting rights over nearly 250,000 acres in Glen Strathfarrar, Glen Cannich and Glen Affric in the Highlands of Scotland. His favourite firearm was the Webley-Fosbery Automatic Revolver (Disputed, he favours the Webley Fosberry above other 'automatic pistols' in the 1901 edition of 'The Art of Revolver Shooting' but it is not mentioned in the 1911 edition nor in the subsequent 'Automatic Pistol Shooting' or 'The Modern Pistol and How to Shoot it. In 'The Art of Revolver Shooting' the Smith & Wesson (American or Russian Model) is the most mentioned revolver, followed by the Colt and Webley a poor third). He died in Parsloes Park, Dagenham, Essex on 12 August 1920. He won two medals for shooting: a gold in 1908 and a silver in 1912. He also won a gold medal for his sculpture An American Trotter at Stockholm in 1912. Member of the P.B.F.A.
