Three of the Clanton gang were killed while Ike and another escaped. The Earps and Doc Holliday survived, but both Morgan and Virgil were wounded. In March 1882, Morgan Earp was gunned down by unknown assassins. Wyatt, his brother Warren, and some friends, embarked on a vendetta and killed four suspects.
