Only Earp's intervention prevents him from being driven from town, although his stock increases rapidly when he helps Earp quell and capture 3 gunmen. Then Earp receives a letter from his brother Virgil, who is the marshall of Tombstone, asking him for help in handling the Clanton Gang. After much shooting, justice prevails.
