His church had prospered greatly under his care.

He won the esteem of the white people. Two years ago he was elected a
member of the Board of Education of the city, and proved himself to be a
man of good judgment in practical affairs. His funeral was attended by
Rev. Dr. Cordley, Rev. R.B. Parker and Rev. A.N. Richards. He was
Secretary of the Minister's Meeting of Lawrence, and resolutions of warm
commendation and sympathy for his family were passed by that body, and
also by the Board of Education of Lawrence.
