a Baptist minister, was born in Maine about 1790. He was licensed, in 1816, by the First Church in Montville, Me., and ordained pastor of the Second Brooksville Church in 1817. Here he remained for seven years, and for several years was an itinerant preacher. In 1832 he became pastor of the Church in Plymouth, Me., where he continued to labor, amid many discouragements, from 1832 to 1843. On resigning he engaged in evangelistic work. The date of his death is not recorded. See Mellett, Hist. of the Baptists of Maine, p. 438. (J.C.S.)
