He went on to perform in Sydney, Geelong and Ballarat before heading to South Australia in August 1866. Soon afterwards, ‘having that delicate and sensitive constitution which so often accompanies extraordinary talents prematurely developed’, he was taken ill with what newspaper reports described as low fever. He died at Norwood in early September.
