Nobody ever says there was a fired case in the sixth chamber. Did he load six, and shoot himself once or did he carry 5-0 and a mystery remains? One old timer opined it was probably not suicide.

"Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself."

Bob Boze Bell on the death of Johnny Ringo. It includes the classic line of “Never take a drunken dentist to make a misdemeanor arrest”;)

Sold for US$ 362,812 inc. premium

Wonder if the buyer had the gambling rights at the Oriental Saloon to afford that?

Well, I can tell you it wasn't anyone in Doc's family that bought it. Ain't no one there who could afford it.
