Immediately upon receiving his degree he settled in Plainfield, Conn., at first in partnership with Dr. Josiah Fuller, but after two or three years he established a separate office and continued there, prominent and respected in the active practice of his profession, until his death, after two days' illness, Nov. 22, 1876, aged 78 years. In 1830 he represented the town in the Legislature, and in 1860 was a member of the State Senate. For nearly three years during the late war he was a special agent, appointed by the Governor, to care for the sick and wounded soldiers of Connecticut regiments on the field or in the hospitals.
He was married, at about the time he began practice, to Mary L., daughter of Dr. Josiah Fuller. Alter her death he was again married, in 1829, to Miss Lucretia A. Payne, of Canterbury, Conn., who survives him with five children.
