The Outlaw Trail at Suite 101 continues.
Outlaws didn't do their dastardly deeds just in the Far West or in southwestern places such as Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. A lot of them, such as Jesse James and his gang, the Doolins, and the Youngers rode a hard and fast trail from bank to train throughout Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and all the other states that make up the Great American Plains.
Gunfight on Fremont Street: Also known as the Gunfight at O. K. Corral.
This one is filled with western characters; the good, the bad, and many in between. They include Tom and Frank McLaury as well as Ike, Phineas, and Billy Clanton. Doc Holliday, who is supposedly walking on the right side of the law in this instance, is also in attendance. In spite of Holiday's alcoholic and tubercular condition this quick-tempered man proves to be an asset to the Earps during the their famous fight that took place not at the corral but on Fremont Street. Here, too, is John Behan, who was County Sheriff of Cochise County of which Tombstone is the county seat. Although Behan was a law man, he wasn't exactly operating within the law. Assistant City Marshall Wyatt Earp, who had a staring role, was probably guilty of a lot of things that history has yet to discover or admit.
