He was a confidant of Arthur Balfour, Chief Secretary for Ireland, and befriended Bishop O'Donnell of Raphoe, an influential Catholic member of the CDB. With a unique knowledge of life in Donegal, he drafted a special report on the Rosses in Donegal for the CDB as part of the Baseline Reports which provided a review of conditions in eight western counties in the 1890s. He chaired the Royal Commission on the Poor Law in Ireland (1906) and gave evidence before the Royal Commission on Congestion in Ireland (1907). Along with Samuel Arnold Lawson, he acted as a Trustee for one hundred acres of bogland at Meenawarra near Culdaff on behalf of the purchaser, Jane Leferre.
