He joined Legacy in Ballarat in 1929 and transferred to Melbourne Legacy in 1935. Even when his health caused him to reduce his commitments to the Reserve list he still found time to attend Legacy and spent many hours each month doing clerical work and fund raising.

The account of his life was written by Legatee Brian Armstrong (initials JHBA) and has a very affectionate tone.
