A.M. Johnson

This is to certify that I am a graduate of the University of Nashville Tenn also (Vanderbilt) and have practiced medicine in Tenn Alabama and Florida and consider Manatee county by far the healthiest section in which I have lived being free of malignant diseases. The diseases that are most prevalent in this portion of the county are of a malarial type, and yield readily to treatment. Respectfully A.W. Johnson, M.D.
