Abstract: The Hon. Peter Paul Debono, who has recently vacated the Chair of Surgery in our Royal University has completed 25 years as Professor of Surgery and as Senior Surgeon to the Central Hospital. Professor Debono was born on the 29th June 1890. He was born into the University since his father, the late Professor Francesco Debono M.D., in the previous April, had been appointed Professor of Botany, Zoology, Hygiene and Forensic Medicine. He was named Peter Paul after his maternal grandfather, Peter Paul Caruana, a merchant, and it was it pure coincidence that he happened to be born on the feast of Saints Peter and Paul.
