an English Methodist minister, son of Timothy, and nephew of the above and of Robert, was born at St. Austell, Cornwall, July 1, 1794. He was converted in youth, and educated at Kingswood School. In 1814 he began to preach, and in 1823 was appointed head-master of that school, having already held the same office at Woodhouse Grove. He afterwards served several important circuits, until he was called in 1837 to the superintendency of the Wesleyan missions in Madras, where he labored with great efficiency. In 1843 he returned to home work in England, and in 1849 was appointed classical tutor in the Wesleyan Theological Institution at Didsbury, where he remained until his death, January 11, 1856. He published several Sermons and other pamphlets. See Minutes of the British Conference, 1856, page 202.
