At the close of this period his eyes were free from suffering, and his heart so set on the work of the ministry, that he ventured to take a license to preach, and labored considerably in the revivals of 1831. Being too feeble to take charge of a parish, he was ordained in 1832, and under commission from the Massachusetts Home Missionary Society he labored in Gloucester Harbor, South Dennis, and Harwich, Mass.
