He served as curate of Great Malvern and assistant master at Malvern College before joining the staff of Rugby School in 1907. In 1912 he went to All Saints’, Poplar, and in 1914 accepted an appointment as vice-principal of Bishop’s College, Cheshunt. Then the war intervened.

He was promoted Chaplain, Third Class, in 1916 and moved to 33 Division (the notoriously teetotal division), seeing service in France.

He retired and was made Dean Emeritus in 1959, and died in Hayton in July 1962. “He was a chaplain in the famous 29th Division, and I recall his holding a confirmation class in a regimental aid post which was little more than a hole in the ground and a few sandbags. He was much loved and known to all of us as a front line padre”.’ (The recipient’s obituary in The Times, 10 August 1962, refers).
