He was educated at the Glasgow University, became tutor in the family of chief baron Ward, and settled as a minister first at Newcastle, Stafford, in 1714. In 1727 he became pastor at Newcastle-on-Tyne, but his health failing, in 1733, he had to go south, and settled at Monkwell Street, London, where he had a crowded audience for many years, and his ministry was very successful.
