Born, 1856 Died, April 19, 1921 NATIVE of Kent, one of the counties of the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Entered the drug business before he had at- tained his fifteenth year. His limited preliminai-y educa- tion had been secured at the public schools of his county and at a high school or academy at Middletown, Delaware. Graduated from the Maryland College of Pharmacy at the age of twenty-one in 1877 and was awarded the first co - lege prize and the Alumni prize for proficiency in Analyti- cal Chemistry. For a short time, he assisted the late Dr. William Simon in the Chemical Laboratory of his Alma Mater. In 1908, he received the hon- orary degree of Doctor of Pharmacy from the University of Maryland. He became owner of a retail drug store in 1882 and later opened a second one. In 1889, having disposed of the two stores in outlying districts of Baltimore, he formed a partnei-ship, which, with progressive changes, has developed the present large and rather unique business of Hynson, Westcott Dun- ning, which includes two retail stores operating within a restricted or so- called ethical scope and a manufacturing department supplying products for physicians ' use and prescriptions only. Dr. Hynson has always taken active interest in pharmaceutical associational work, having been president of the following organizations: Baltimore Retail Druggists Association, Maryland Pharmaceutical Association, National Association of Retail Drug- gists (its first president); also a member and secretary of the Baltimore Board of Pharmacy and, for a number of years, secretary of the Maryland College of Pharmacy. In this capacity he sent out the first call for the formation of the present Conference of Pharmaceutical Faculties. He is credited with being the father of the A. Ph. A. section on Practical Phar- macy and Dispensing and it was he who first suggested the formation of the Drug Trade Conference and an investigation of the abnormal sale of nar- cotic drugs. Beginning in 1903, Professor Hynson held the Chair of Commer- cial Pharmacy and Dispensing in the Department of Pharmacy, University of Maryland, and continued in the combined chair until a few years ago, when he gave up dispensing and continued to teach commercial practice only. He delivered regular courses of lectures on pharmacy at the College of Phy- sicians and Surgeons and at the Woman ' s Medical College, Baltimore. Many contributions to the literature of pharmacy have been made by him, one paper winning first prize in the Merck ' s Journal contest; another was awarded an honorarium of distinction by the American Pharmaceutical As- sociation.
