He was educated at the University of Glasgow and graduated with an M.A. in 1651.[2] At the Restoration he was minister of Symington in the Presbytery of Biggar being admitted between 4th May and 2nd November 1658. He was deprived by the Act of Parliament 11th June, and of Privy Council 1st October 1662. He became one of the most zealous of the Covenanting preachers; and for eight years peregrinated the country, conducting public worship on the hillsides and in private houses.[3] ArrestAround the beginning of 1670, he was apprehended for preaching and baptizing in houses and sent to Edinburgh. He lay successively in the Canongate jail, in Stirling Castle, and Dumbarton Castle, till about the time of the granting of the second indulgence in September 1672, when he was liberated. By this indulgence, he was allowed to exercise his ministry within the parish of Cumbraes. But he declined to accept of this ensnaring boon, and associated with Mr John Welsh and others in preaching in the fields. Along with John Welsh and others, went about from place to place "holding conventicles, marrying, baptizing, and dispensing the Lord's Supper." For nine years he assiduously carried on these earnest labours. In July 1674, he was publicly denounced a rebel and put to the horn; and in August 1676, letters of intercommuning were issued against him. In 1681 he was captured and sent to the Edinburgh Tolbooth. On the 15th of February 1683 he was apprehended in Edinburgh, and on the 15th of September next year, the Council ordered him to be sent to the Bass Rock. He was sent at the same time as Sir Hugh Campbell but neither he nor Hugh's son Sir George Campbell was permitted to ride in a coach.[4] Like Mr John Blackadder, he lay there till released by the hand of death. His mortal remains were carried from his prison and interred in the churchyard of North Berwick. Bibliography
