an English Methodist preacher, was born in Gateshead-on-Tyne in 1838; was converted in his youth and joined the New Connection. His work as a local preacher gave promise of a life of usefulness in the Church, and he entered the ministry in 1863. He traveled in Barnsley, Stockton, Liverpool, Birmingham, and Alnwick; and at the end of ten years service his health failed him, and in 1874 he became a supernumerary. Hoping for recovery, he took a voyage, but his useful life was cut short; he died at sea, Dec. 21, 1874. See Baggaly, Digest of the Methodist New Connection.
