Until twenty-five years of age, he made his home with his parents, but after the age of seventeen had successfully engaged in teaching through the winter months. He also attended the Grove City College, feeling called to the work of the Master, and entered the Erie Conference, and was ordained for the ministry. His first charge was at President, Venango County, where he remained for two years. In September, 1893, he was appointed pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Sligo, and also had charge of the congregation at Curllsville, Cherry Run, Monroe Chapel and Pine Grove, where he remained four years. In September, 1897, he was appointed by Bishop Fowler to a pastorate in New Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, which includes the congregation at Oak Ridge. In this connection he was president of the Camp Meeting Association located at Cherry Run, one of the most noted camp meeting grounds in that section of the State. Socially, he was a member of the Knights of the Maccabees at Rockland, and, politically, was identified with the Prohibition party. He was a man of scholarly tastes, an able speaker, and a very popular minister, being held in high regard by all religious denominations as well as by his own church.
