For his participation in the Battle of Łódź in 1914 he was promoted to the rank of major general and awarded the golden saber.

After the February Revolution and the overthrow of the tsar, he was active in the Military Union of Poles in Russia, becoming a member of Naczpol.

In the opinion of Dr. Korolewicz, his health condition at that time required him to refrain from performing any activities for a period of three months and to be referred for spa treatment.

[5] Five days later in the Holy Cross Church in Warsaw, Cardinal Aleksander Kakowski held a funeral service.

After the service the coffin with the general's remains was transported on a flatbed, with an honorary escort consisting of an infantry battalion and two cavalry squadrons, to the railway station.

The funeral procession marched from the Lviv Cathedral to the Cemetery of the Defenders of Lwów, where the deceased was buried in the commanders' quarters.

After the occupation of Lviv in 1939 by the Red Army and its incorporation into the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, the Cemetery of the Defenders of Lwów was destroyed and desacrated.

However, due to the deaths of direct witnesses and the previous lack of interest from Polish institutions, these places remain unknown to this day.
