As I recall, August was tempted by Tamara to leave Storybrooke and find the Dragon's vial at her apartment so he could reverse the process of becoming wooden again. It isn't until he sees the picture of her grandmother in Tamara's car that August realizes she's lying. He races back to the sheriff's department to warn Emma, but no one is there. He picks up the phone to call her, and Tamara appears. She tases him and he is barely able to stumble outside. August collapses and tries to warn them before he dies.
I've only seen the episode once, and that was when it first aired, so I might have the timeline wrong...but I don't see how there was a lot of time for August to try to write a note, considering Tamara was standing there with her Taser.
Besides, these characters do things that I consider to be stupid all the time! It drives me nuts sometimes! :)
