A Liberal, he was acclaimed in 1872 and re-elected in the federal election in 1874. He was defeated in the federal election in 1878.
He was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario for the riding of Prescott in an 1881 by-election held after the death of William Harkin. A Liberal, he was re-elected in 1883.
