Shortly after his arrival here in 1839, he was called upon to draw up papers to be placed in the corner-stone of old St. Paul's Episcopal church; and when the new structure of this denomination replaced the old one, a similar request was made of him, and again he cheerfully complied with the pleasing duty. He was vestryman and treasurer of this church for over thirty-five years, and a liberal contributor to all of its needs during his long lifetime."
