Born at Pictou, Nova Scotia, on January 30, 1845 Rev. Gordon was educated at Pictou Academy, at Glasgow University (M.A. 1863, B.D. 1866, D.D. 1895), and at Berlin University. He was ordained a minister of the Presbyterian Church in Canada in 1866 and he served successively in charges at Truro, Ottawa, Winnipeg, and Halifax. From 1894 to 1902, he was a professor of systematic theology and apologetics at the Halifax Presbyterian College and in 1902 he was appointed Principal and Vice-Chancellor of Queen's University. He retired from this position in 1917 because of ill health. He served as a chaplain in the North West Rebellion of 1885 and in 1896 he was elected moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. In 1915 he was created a C.M.G., and he held the honorary degree of LL.D. from Dalhousie University (1904) and the University of Toronto (1911). He was also the author of Mountain and Prairie.
