He was converted about 1833, and about two years later received license to preach. He died Aug. 8, 1853. As a, preacher he had but few equals. He had a strong, comprehensive mind, and -grasped his subject like a giant. He was powerful in declamation. See Minutes of Annual Conferences of the M. E Church South, 1853, p.452.
