He was shot by a sniper and died about 5.30 am.

His commanding officer, Lieut-Col C.E.F.Copeman, in a letter to the Cambridge Chronicle said "Corporal Dewey was shot through the lungs as he was getting into a trench, and died a few hours afterwards. He was most plucky and never once complained, his only regret being that he could not get at the Germans", and in a letter to Mrs Dewey he wrote "his platoon commander tells me he was the best n.c.o. that he had, and I know that he was one of the most useful men in the battalion".

He was buried in the churchyard at Dickebusch.. Corporal Dewey was a well known Cambridge athlete, a member of the town and county cycling club, and earned a great reputation as a trainer.
