A famous surgeon of his time who was made, described as a 'surgeon-apothocary', an Edinburgh Burgess by right of his father on 6th April 1725. He was admitted a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons on 20th April 1737 and in the year of the rebellion was President of the College and a member of the Edinburgh Town Council because of that office. Following the battle of Prestonpans he was taken with John Rattray, by the Prince, to England to tend the wounded and was, as a result, imprisoned by the government firstly at Inverness and afterwards in London. Several of his pupils figured in the rebellion. He was thrown from his horse on 30th April and died 8th May 1752 at Edinburgh.
