  • DOC HOLIDAY - Among the twenty-six gentlemen upon whom the degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery was conferred was one John Henry Holliday of Valdosta, Georgia.

Philadelphia, the "City of Brotherly Love", is far removed from Tombstone, Arizona - the "Town Too Tough to Die". Nevertheless, this John Henry Holliday who sat upon the platform of this graduating exercise was the same Doc Holliday who, on October 26, 1881, participated with the Earp brothers against the Clantons and McLaurys in the famous "Gunfight at the O.K.
