He practiced law at Liverpool and came to Wolfville over 40 years ago, where he carried on a successful practice of his profession until failing health a little over a year ago forced him to retire. He was a good citizen and deservedly popular, and during his active life took a deep interest in the affairs of the community. He was known as a well informed and dependable lawyer, and during his long practice acquired considerable property. Since retiring from active work there were many of his old clients who sought his advice up to the day of his death. His health had failed him about a year ago and the end came very suddenly. He was in his usual activity on Monday, when he suddenly collapsed, but quickly rallied and attempted to do a volume of correspondence in the afternoon and following morning almost to the hour of his departure.
