After attending school until the age of eighteen, he entered the State Normal school at Lock Haven, Pennsylvania, where he remained for one term, teaching the following term in Burnside township, Clearfield County. He then took up the study of telegraphy and in 1899 entered the employ of the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. as a telegrapher, remaining thus engaged for two years. He then became joint agent for the New York Central and Pennsylvania Railroads, in addition acting as agent for the American and Adams Express companies. He was a member and one of the trustees of the Baptist church, also acting as secretary of the board of trustees. A Republican politically, he served on the borough council, and before coming of age acted as the clerk of the council.
