Henry was educated at Dulwich College, and at St Thomas’s Hospital - entering as a student in 1879. Whilst there he won a Scholarship and Gold Medal in Medicine at the London M.B. examination in 1885, and the Gold Medal for the B.S. In 1887 he became a Fellow of Royal College of Surgeons of England, and was appointed Hunterian Professor in 1893. In the same year he was appointed assistant surgeon on the surgical staff of St Thomas’s Hospital. Along with his work he also took an interest in the work of the British Medial Association, where he was a member of the council of the Metropolitan Counties Branch for twenty five years, and had held the office of president, along with the duty of treasurer. In 1901 the Cheselden masonic lodge began at St Thomas’s, and Henry soon became a member. He was occupying the Master’s chair of the lodge when he was stricken with illness. As Surgeon of St Thomas’s he held a Territorial Commission in the R.A.M.C., and had served at the rank of Captain from 1908. When war broke out he was called up and was attached to the 2nd London General Hospital. In 1915, when the military side of St Thomas’s became No 5 London General Hospital, he took charge of beds there as well. He had also volunteered his services at the King George Hospital for a short while to help them with the war effort. By 1918 he had been working at three military hospitals, as well as attending his civil ones, and this took its toll on his health. At the time of his death he was senior surgeon on the acting staff, as well as Consulting Surgeon to two Children’s hospitals in the East End. For many years he was also Examiner in Surgery at the Universities of London and Manchester. He died after some weeks of illness. He was the husband of Mrs. H.
