The Magistrate's records at SPRI tell us that Jordan was the Government whaling inspector on 'Southern Venturer' and died of heart failure in position  40° 44' N 10° 50' W. The date and position imply that he was on board the vessel en route to the southern whaing grounds for the start of the season.
