In 1843 he had to leave Hagenow at the instigation of the then mayor, his corps brother Ernst Bölte , because of his political "riots" and to accept a ban on entering the Hagenow city area. The landowner August von Laffert auf Lehsen took him in. Neither the city of Hagenow nor the state government in Schwerin found themselves willing to lift the entry ban in the Mecklenburg Vormärz . He published a diatribe about the exercise of his rights, which led to the initiation of an official investigation, which he evaded in September 1847 by emigrating to Texas . He returned to Mecklenburg in October 1848 and was elected to the Mecklenburg parliament in the constituency of Mecklenburg-Schwerin 22 (Hagenow) in the same year . Also in 1848 he was one of the participants in the second Democrats' Congress in Berlin. Criminal proceedings initiated in 1850 because of his abusive pamphlet from 1845 forced him to emigrate again to the United States of America.

In 1993 a street in Hagenow was named after him.
