He taught to obtain means to enter college, and studied at Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, but was unable to finish either a classical or theological course.

In 1863, he was appointed by his synod professor of theology at the Mercersburg Seminary.

He occupied this chair until his death, which was occasioned by undue mental exertion.
