He became surgeon at the National Hospital, Queen Square, in 1886 and was an outstanding figure in the development of neurosurgery. He carried out the first neurosurgical operation for epilepsy in 1886, on James B, a case of post-traumatic epilepsy. The patient was shown at a meeting in Brighton later in the year, at which Hughlings Jackson and Charcot were present, and both congratulated Horsley on his skill.22 At a concert at the Albert Hall a few years later, Horsley's son had a first epileptic seizure and was subsequently operated on by his father. Horsley then suddenly abandoned his work at the National Hospial and became an active political militant and organiser, an antivivisectionist, a supporter of women's suffrage, and a fanatical crusader against alcohol.2324 He died during the First World War in Mesopotamia having volunteered for the Tigris campaign
