a Baptist minister, was born in Franklin County, Ky., Feb. 3, 1803. He united with the Church in 1827, and was ordained in 1833. His only settlement was as pastor of the Lebanon and North Benson churches, but while holding this position he supplied, for longer or shorter periods, several churches in Kentucky. He died Aug. 21, 1845. "His great zeal, unaffected piety, and the sweet simplicity of his preaching won the hearts of the multitude, and by him many were led to the Saviour." See Cathcart, Baptist Encyclop. p. 105. (J. C. S.)
