General Notes: Husband - James Johnston, M.D.

---

He received his primary education in the public schools of West township, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, and afterwards attended the high school in Jackson township for five years. He then opened a store in Masseysburg, which he conducted for some years, carefully saving his profits. A fire, however, destroyed his stock at one time, by which he incurred a heavy loss. He retired from business in 1892, and began to read medicine with Dr. G. W. Lupfer. One year later he entered the Baltimore City College of Physicians and Surgeons, where he spent three years, graduating with honors in the spring of 1896. In politics, the Doctor was a Democrat, and in church fellowship, worships with the Methodist Episcopal church.
