==Career==
He was brought up for the ministry by Thomas Brand. In December 1691 he witnessed the funeral of Richard Baxter, and long afterwards told Samuel Palmer, of the ''Nonconformist's Memorial'', that the coaches reached from Merchant Taylors' Hall (whence the body was carried) to Christ Church, Newgate, the place of burial. Next year he became tutor and chaplain in the family of Sir Thomas Roberts, at Glassenbury, near Cranbrook, Kent. In 1699 he became assistant to Thomas Reynolds at the Weighhouse presbyterian chapel, Eastcheap, and soon afterwards became one of the evening lecturers at Lime Street. In 1706 or 1707 he succeeded Glascock as pastor of the presbyterian congregation in Drury Lane, Westminster. In 1708 he joined with four presbyterians and an independent (Thomas Bradbury) in a course of Friday evening lectures at the Weighhouse on the conduct of public religious worship. He increased his congregation, partly by help of a secession from the ministry of Daniel Burgess (1645–1713), and removed it to a new meeting-house in Hanover Street, Long Acre. At Hanover Street he established a Thursday morning lecture, and maintained it till Christmas 1767. In the Salters' Hall conferences in 1719 Earle was one of the twenty-seven presbyterian subscribers. In 1723 he was elected one of the trustees of Dr. Williams' foundations. On 21 August 1728 the degree of D.D. was conferred upon him by the University of Edinburgh; shortly afterwards the same degree was conferred upon him by King's College, Aberdeen. At this time he held the position of chaplain to the Duke of Douglas (1694–1761).
