He returned to Cambridge as a tutor at Gonville and Caius in 1851, where he also took up the post of vicar of Holy Trinity Church, Cambridge which he held until 1865. He was made an honorary canon of Ripon Cathedral in 1864, while the following year he moved north to County Durham, becoming the rector of Stanhope where he died 21 October 1883. (en)
