He was a Judge of Probate for the Court of Common Pleas and a colonel of the Gloucester County Militia. He was appointed a member of Continental Congress in 1774, but refused to take the office’s oath of secrecy. In 1776, choosing to remain loyal to the British Crown, he fled to Canada, where he was appointed colonel of the Queen’s Loyal Rangers by Sir Guy Carleton. Subsequently, his troops participated in Burgoyne’s campaign and engaged in combat with the Continental Army during the Battle of Bennington. After the war, his property was confiscated as a consequence of his loyalist actions, so he and his family remained in Canada, having settled at Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. About 1785, he went to England to enter his claim for reimbursement for losses resulting from the confiscation of his property in the United States. He was still in England when he died in 1788.
