Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Charles Rice: Born October 4, 1841, Died May 13, 1901
His exceptional pharmaceutical and chemical experience, his love of detail, and, above all, his sympathy with the needs of young men, fitted him especially for the work of the ex amination-room. He became chairman of the examining committee in 1890, and filled the position to the great satis faction of all until the time of his death. It must ever have been a source of regret to the College that he never became a member of the Faculty, but he always shrank from lecturing or from any position which required the prolonged use of his voice. He also served in the capa city of Curator, was a member of the Building Committee, and of several standing and many special committees, where his ripe judgment and ability to harmonize conflicting opin ions made his services almost indispensable. Dr. Rice's contributions to pharmaceutical literature were voluminous during his connection with the journal known as New Remedies, of which he was the associate editor from 1876 to 1892. This journal and the Pharmaceutical Record were afterwards merged into the American Drug-gist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
