For seventeen years (1840-57) he was a Methodist preacher. He then joined the Free-willBaptists, and was ordained a minister in that denomination in June 1858. It is said that during the year following his baptism he preached more than three hundred sermons, travelling from place to place on foot. He died in Braintree, Vermont, December 16, 1860.
