[12] Following the Allied withdrawal he went to Egypt and fought with the Western Frontier Force in the Senussi campaign.

His immediate commander General Harry Chauvel said of him "his masterpiece was probably his skilful withdrawal of his own division and attached brigades from Es Salt during the second Trans-Jordan raid, when, owing to the defection of certain of our Arab allies and a determined counter-attack by the enemy, he was surrounded on three sides, and his line of retreat almost cut off in extremely difficult country.

[18] Henry West Hodgson died at the age of 61 in London on 5 February 1930, and was buried at St Mary Magdalene's Church, Bolney, England.
