a minister in the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, was born in Madison County, Va., Jan. 4, 1803. He grew up in ignorance and sin; experienced conversion in his sixteenth year; received license to preach in 1823; was for several years a member of the Virginia Conference, and became a member of the Georgia Conference on its organization. Subsequently he superannuated, and, after suffering for years with paralysis, died in 1859.
