On 17 January 1900 he married Mary Myres, with whom he had three children. In 1904 he was elected to the New South Wales Legislative Assembly as the Labor member for Murrumbidgee. A supporter of military conscription, he left the party in the 1916 split and won re-election in 1917 as a Nationalist. In 1920, with the introduction of proportional representation, he was denied preselection for the new multi-member Murrumbidgee and was defeated as an independent Nationalist. He is believed to have made some money as a land dealer after his defeat, but he died impoverished in Hunters Hill in 1930. (en)
