He was licensed by the Second Presbytery on April 7th 1894 and was ordained by the same Presbytery on October 26th 1895. He spent a portion of the following year in the Texas Presbvtery, mostly at Milano. From there he went to Generostee, S. C, and afterwards to Ebenezer and Wrens, Ga. Then to Hinkston and Ebenezer in Kentucky for six months in 1898. The next two years were spentin Salem, Alabama and Hood Spring, Tennessee. He joined the Kentucky Presbytery, by certificate from the Second Presbytery in November 1901; having spent the summer at Hinkston and Olivet. The following year, 1902, Rev. Pressly continued to serve these churches with zeal and fidelity. At the meeting of Synod, Nov., 1902, he received appointments in the Memphis Presbytery, and was assigned work in the congregation at Bethany, Mississippi.
