He was general secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association at Concord, New Hampshire, 1887-1890; at Salem, Massachusetts, 1890-1895, at Worcester, Massachusetts, 1895-1898; at Nashville, Tennessee. 1900-1903; at New Orleans, Louisiana, 1903 to 1907.

Mr. Abbott was a natural orator, and was greatly in demand as a public speaker, both in the pulpit and on the platform. He was an extensive traveler, having visited all parts of the United States and made several ocean voyages. He was a life member of the Appalachian Mountain Club, and while in the North was very active in the work. He climbed many of the White Mountain summits on snow-shoes and was an enthusiastic camper out. He was interested in all forms of practical Christianity, and everything that pertains to the public welfare. He was an ardent worker in the cause of temperance, and always voted the Prohibition ticket. He joined the North Congregational Church in Concord at the age of eighteen.1
- Walter married Clara Lucas on June 22, 1907 in Coliseum Place Baptist church, New Orleans, Orleans Parish, Louisiana. Mr. and Mrs. Abbott spent their honeymoon in England.1
