As a delagate from the American Anti-Slavery Society he went with William Lloyd Garrison to the World's Anti-Slavery Convention in London in 1840. He recruited black soldiers in Massachusetts for the Union Army during the Civil War. After the war, he worked as a clerk in the Boston Customs House, and as a street lamp inspector.
