He was instrumental in rescuing the survivors of the Florizel in 1917 when he single-handedly rowed a dory back and forth between the wreck of the Florizel and shore taking one passenger after another to safety. In 1937, he was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) and was awarded a medal for his public service.
