Received his professional training at St Bartholomew's Hospital, and practised at Prescot, and then (1847) at Mill Lane, West Derby, Liverpool. He was Surgeon to the Liverpool Cholera Hospital, and later (1858) was Surgeon to the Liverpool Workhouse, Infirmary, and Fever Hospital, his address being in Brunswick Road. He rose in time to be Senior Surgeon at the Workhouse, etc, and in 1861 was practising at Brownlow Hill. Nothing further is known of him for many years before his death, which probably occurred previously to 1900. [He remains to the last among the Members in the College *Calendar*, apparently because he had not paid his Fellowship fees.]
