In 1867 he represented Worcester County in the convention which framed the present Constitution of Maryland. He was elected in 1871 to the Maryland House of Delegates from this county, on the Democratic ticket, and in 1877 to the Maryland State Senate, where he served in the sessions of 1878 and 1880. He was for years an elder in the Presbyterian Church of Berlin. He died at his home near Berlin, of typhoid fever, after an illness of two weeks, on April 9, 1888, in his 58th year. He married, February 9, 1853, Sarah E., daughter of Thomas Chaney, Esq., of Issaquena County, Mississippi, who survived him with four of their seven children,—two daughters and two sons.
