After receiving a medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania, he proceeded to practice medicine in Lewes, Delaware.

With the advent of the Civil War, he advocated for a state convention to decide whether to stay in the Union, appointed Henry Dupont Major General of the Delaware Militia and supplied more troops to the federal army in the war effort than any other state.
