He attended Monmouth College, Monmouth, Illinois, and studied theology at Xenia Theological Seminary, Xenia, Ohio. He was pastor of the Springfield, Ohio, United Presbyterian Church for fifteen years, resigning in 1891 to accept a call to the Fourth United Presbyterian Church of Pittsburgh, North Side, where he remained until 1899, when he was appointed to the chair of Systematic Theology, Church History and Church Government at Xenia Seminary. He filled this position until elected president of the institution, continuing in both offices over a period of twenty-two years.
