an early Methodist preacher, was born at Colford, Somersetshire, England, in 1734. He was converted as a result of Wesley's visit to the parish in which he was born.

He desisted from the work in 1798, and thereafter was a class-leader in his native place. He died at Halcomb, Somersetshire, Feb. 9, 1818. See Jackson, Early Meth. Preachers, v, 296; Wesl. Meth.
