He united with the Christian Church and entered its ministry about 1857. For fifteen years before that time he had served as an itinerant Methodist minister. He was a talented, well-educated man, owned and used a large library, had a fine memory--reading much of the Bible without the text--held many public discussions and formed not a few churches in southern Illinois during the last thirty-three years of his life.
