He was educated at Marlborough College and Peterhouse, Cambridge.^[2] He was ordained in 1886 and, after a brief period as Chaplain at his old school, emigrated to India where he worked as a missionary with the SPG. From 1898 he was Examining Chaplain to the inaugural Bishop of Lucknow ^[3] whom in time he succeeded.^[4] He died in post on 16 January 1928, his Times obituary noting his "missionary zeal to secure the self government of the Indian Church."^[5]
