Later, he moved to Wentworth County in Upper Canada before finally settling in Warwick Township in Lambton County. He served on the township council for Warwick, serving as reeve for several years. He was also named a justice of the peace. He supported giving the vote to women. He helped introduce the Tile Drainage Act, which helped farmers gain funding to drain wetlands on their land.
