He was elected as a Democrat to the Fifty-second Congress and served from March 4, 1891 until September 3, 1892, when he resigned to become a judge of the Maryland Court of Appeals. He was appointed chief judge of the first judicial district of Maryland in August 1892, and was elected to the position in November 1893 for a term of fifteen years. He died in Princess Anne in 1913, and is interred in Manokin Presbyterian Church Cemetery.
