40 MEMOIR OF DANIEL HANBURY. 



Professor says the Professor, " that our science is confined to no 

 single nationality, and that consequently he who labours 

 for the advancement of Pharmaceutical science acquires 

 an international importance. Just such an eminent 

 international position, I think, had Hanbury taken. An 

 Englishman by birth, he lived and worked for all 

 civilized peoples." 



An additional claim to our respect i,s that Hanbury 

 triumphed over social temptations ; his surroundings 

 whispered to him, Soul, take thine ease ; but, proof against 

 seduction, he strove and toiled as though necessity had 

 been his strong incentive. 



Those who think that easy circumstances and leisure 

 are favourable to intellectual effort are tremendously 

 mistaken. Hanbury worked on laboriously in spite of 

 his pastoral life at Clapham or success in Lombard 

 Street. And so an English name has been added to the 

 list of those whom men hold in honour.
