He came to St John\u2019s in 1878 through an exchange with Stewart Holland, serving the parish for 6 years.<\/p>\n<p>Baker was well-known as \u2018a very hard-working clergyman, who was indefatigable in the discharge of his ministerial duties.\u2019 He had a special concern for the Sunday School and day school, and was particularly noted for his preaching, attracting large congregations and receiving invitations to preach beyond Bury. He also brought well-known preachers of the day from London to preach at St John\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>Leaving St John\u2019s, he exchanged benefices with Thomas Stantial at St John\u2019s, Clapham Rise. He later served as Vicar of All Saints Scarborough, and was Rector of Newnham with Mapledurwell in Hampshire from 1901 until his death in 1916. His wife pre-deceased him.
