As a volunteer in the First Middlesex Artillery, he compiled a handbook for drill instruction.[3]

His Novelties of Romanism,[4] developed from a sermon,[5] was translated into Spanish and, from Spanish, into Portuguese (under the translated name of Carlos Hastings Collette) and remains in print to this day.[6]
