Details: DR. ROBERT GEORGE ALCORN, L.R.C.P., Edin., L.R.C.S., Ireland, was born in 1853, and received his education at Ennis College, County Clare, and Rathmine s School, Dublin. He is the third son of the late Rev. John Alcorn, D.D., of Drones and Cashel, and after obtaining his degrees became associated with the Allan line of mail steamers trading between Liverpool and Canada, and the White Star Line, of Norfolk. He afterwards accepted a temporary appointment as house surgeon in the South Dispensary at Liverpool, and left England for the colonies in 1874, arriving in the Windsor Castle in Sydney. In accordance with an agreement entered into before leaving Dublin, he settled in Newcastle and became the assistant of Dr. Knaggs. In 1876 he commenced to practice on his own account in West Maitland. Dr. Alcorn is visiting surgeon to H.M. Gaol in Maitland and is one of the medical staff in connection with the Hospital. Dr. Samuel Alfred Alcorn is a partner of Dr. R. G. Alcorn-the subject of this biography-and practices in East Maitland. It may be of interest to say that Dr. Alcorn s father, of whom mention has already been made, took his degree and a scholarship when twenty-two years of age at Trinity College, Dublin
