by Sir Leslie Ward

James Manby Gully was a celebrated Victorian hydrotherapist. Gully trained in medicine in Paris and then Edinburgh. His family fortune was tied up in the ownership of two plantations and many enslaved Africans in Jamaica. However, within the space of a year his father, mother and fiancée died and with them his inheritance from the plantations his father owned was gone. This forced Gully to move to London where he set up a successful practice treating William Tennyson and Charles Darwin among others.
