After the shootout at the OK Corral was over, Frank and Tom McLowery were dead, Billy Clanton was dead. Ike Clanton, being the coward that he was, ran screaming away and escaped. Morgan was shot in the shoulder and Virgil was also wounded.
According to record, Tom McLowery was shot by Doc Holliday using his double barreled shotgun, while the Earp preferred the Colt single action peacemakers.
On Billy's deathbed in Dr. Goodfellow's office he is said tohave told the doctor, " Pull off my boots. I promised my mother than I'd never die with my boots on". And so he did.
Next time...the feared Apache.
