In 1695 Tew attacked a big ship belonging to the Great Mogul. However, this time, his pray was well armed. During the battle, he was mortally wounded.

His historian tells us "a shot carried away the rim of Tew's belly, who held his bowels with his hands for some space. When he dropped, it struck such terror to his men that they suffered themselves to be taken without further resistance". Many Tew's pirates were executed immediately, the rest died in prison, in India.
