He was the first stationed on the Sebringville (Ontario) Circuit where he remained seven months, and the remainder of the year he was stationed on the Bentinck (Ontario) Mission. In 1877 he was stationed on the Middleton Mission, and during 1878-79 he was a local. In 1880 he was again stationed on the Sebringville Circuit, and during the years 1881-82 he labored on the Maitland Mission. During the years 1883-85 he was stationed on the Pembroke Mission, and during the years 1886-87 on the Niagara Mission. In the spring of 1888 the conference placed him on the Morriston Mission. From here he was placed on the Carrick field of labor, and in April 1895, he was stationed on the Dashwood field of labor where he is now working. So far he has proved successful in the ministry.
