DOC HOLLIDAY - HAVE GUN WILL PULL TEETH
Here's another HISTORY'S TIDBIT. But first I'll provide you with the answer to the riddle included in the last tidbit. Sam Houston served as governor of Tennessee and Texas. He also served as a U.S. Senator from both Tennessee and Texas. He also served two unconsecutive terms as president of the Republic of Texas Now, on to the next tidbit. Do you know why John H. Holliday was referred to as Doc Holliday? Although not a medical doctor, Holliday was a dentist. By the time he reached Tombstone however, he was far better known as a gunman than as a puller of teeth. By; the way, check out my website elkinsphotos.com and view the photo essay on vintage baseball. Larry Elkins
