He was the acting president from 1757 to 1758 and also oversaw the negotiations that led to Samuel Davies becoming the fourth president of the college. He was the first pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in Trenton, New Jersey, serving from 1736 to 1760. He died in 1760 and was buried in the churchyard of First Presbyterian Church.
