in 1861, holding various positions including Secretary, Treasurer, Vice President, and President. With no permanent headquarters, the TSE bounced between various members' offices, including Hime's brokerage office. Hime was president at the time of the Exchange's collapse in 1869, by which time membership had dropped from twenty-four members to six. Hime joined the reborn stock exchange in 1871, serving as its president in 1888–1889, and remained a member until 1898, when he passed his seat to his son A. G. Hime.

While the precise date is unknown, the firm produced four sets of photographs of Toronto, either in 1856 or 1857. These were the first comprehensive series of photographs of the city.

With photography in its infancy, controlled environmental conditions, including humidity and temperature, were critical for clear photographs. In the western interior, however, these conditions could not be controlled, and Hime relied on stream water for developing his photographs.

Hime continued to work with Armstrong, Beere and Hime until the firm's closure in 1861. In 1860, Hime had established his own brokerage firm despite having no previous experience in the field, something he shared with nearly half of the city's brokers. He became a member of the Toronto Stock Exchange

Upon returning to Toronto, Hime returned to working with Armstrong, Beere and Hime, and was responsible for developing the photographs to be submitted with the final report. He enlisted the help of his partner Daniel Beere, charging $ 80 for the services. Hind did not approve of the additional costs,

Hime's photographs altered perceptions of the West. Instead of being seen as either tundra or an arctic wasteland, photographs of plains reinforced the belief that suitable agricultural settlements could be established.

Their analyses of this region caused expansionists to argue that western settlement was more viable than once thought. 288:
While in Toronto, Hime held various positions in the municipal government, including several elected offices. Entering electoral politics as an alderman in 1873, he went on to be a member of various committees: Finance and Assessment Standing Committee, Board of Health Committee, and the Jail

Hime's performance on the expedition is subject to question. While Hind had initially been satisfied with Hime's conduct, he later wrote that Hime had " … neglected his duty, and proved a very undesirable companion on an expedition of this kind, retarding its progress and work". Hind did not

Hind approached Hime in spring 1858 and asked him to join the expedition as a photographer. It is speculated that Hind initially heard of Hime either through Hime's business partner 341: 219:, or through W. H. Napier, who had gone on the 1857 expedition with Hind. The pair concluded negotiations in April, and Hime settled on the rate of ÂŁ20 per month. Departing from Toronto on 29 April, the expedition moved to 317: 289:
