Details:
Son of T Callaway, senr (qv), was born in 1822. He studied at Guy’s Hospital and became Demonstrator of Anatomy, living at 7 William Street, London Bridge. In 1846 he gained the Jacksonian Prize, which with some additions he published in London in 1849 under the title “A Dissertation upon Dislocations and Fractures of the Clavicle and Shoulder-joint”. It is an excellent monograph, well illustrated, and worthy of being recognized as complementary to Sir Astley Cooper’s work. In 1860 he acted as Staff Surgeon Major to the British Legion during the Italian Campaign, and after that practised at Maison Lemorzin, Place Bresson, Algiers, and was made a Member of the Algerian Faculty of Medicine in 1862. He died at Algiers on February 28th, 1869. Publications: In addition to the work alluded to above, Callaway also published – *An Oration delivered before the Hunterian Society*, Feb 13th, 1856, London, n.d.
