He served churches in Girard, Penn., 1853-1855; in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, 1855-1866; and in Roxbury, Massachusetts, 1866-1888.
Two of his hymns are included in Church Harmonies: New and Old, 1895:
1. Father, in this sacred hour

This last was included in Hymns of the Church, 1907, and altered to read, "In Thee, O Father, are we all at home" in Hymns of the Spirit, 1937.
