a Free-will Baptist minister, was born in 1820 in Barrington, N.H. He became a Christian in early life, and, removing to Dover, joined the First Free-will Baptist Church of that place. In a year or two after he began to preach in Raymond, Maine, and subsequently in Kennebunk, where he was ordained. In the spring of 1846 he became a student in the Biblical school at Whitestown, N.Y. Finding his lungs in a weak state, he turned his attention to the study of medicine. He lived for a short time in Utica, and then came to Dover, N. H., where he died, December 30, 1851.
