a veteran missionary of the Presbyterian Board, was born in Kentucky in May 1798. He was licensed to preach and ordained for missionary work in southern Illinois, where he spent a long laborious, and successful ministry, preaching to the very last of his life. He organized many churches in that destitute region, which he supplied with preaching, and multitudes, through his instrumentality, were brought into the fold of Christ. After an active service of over fifty years, he died, in Troy, Madison County, Illinois. July 11, 1881. See Presbyterian Monthly Record, September 1881. (W.P.S.)
