an English Bible Christian minister, was born at Clovelly, Devon, January 15, 1803. He was converted at the age of seventeen, and eight months afterwards was appointed class-leader. In 1823 he was placed on the circuit plan as local preacher, and in 1829 was taken into the itinerant ministry. He continued to labor until 1864, when, through ill-health, he became superannuated.
