or an English Congregational minister, was born at Narberth, Pembrokeshire, April 30, 1826. He was educated at Carmaihrthen ant Homerton colleges, and at the age of twenty-four entered upon the pastorate of the Church at Wandlsworth, where he remained three years. Retiring to recuperate his failing health, he sojourned in Bonn and subsequently in Berlin, pursuing his theological studies. He refused the chair of theology at Carmarthen College, and accepted the agency of the British and Foreign Bible Society in south Germany. For several years he lived in Frankfort; but in 1869, having been called to superintend the entire work of the Bible Society in Germany and Switzerland, he removed to Berlin, where he continued to reside until his death, April 23, 1881. He wrote, Erinnerungsblatter von Freundeshand ( Berlin, 1881). See (Lond.) Cong. Year-book, 1882, page 292.
