55:10 deeper exploration of the historic depot
55:10 deeper exploration of the historic depot for another time. What I'm looking for
55:13 for another time. What I'm looking for
55:13 for another time. What I'm looking for should be out here. This depot from what
55:16 should be out here. This depot from what
55:16 should be out here. This depot from what I can remember was built in 1907. I
55:18 I can remember was built in 1907. I

56:18 go on his famous vendetta ride. And that
56:18 go on his famous vendetta ride. And that ride actually began right here along
56:21 ride actually began right here along
56:21 ride actually began right here along these tracks because this is the place
56:24 these tracks because this is the place
56:24 these tracks because this is the place where Wyatt Herp and his friend Doc
56:27 where Wyatt Herp and his friend Doc
56:27 where Wyatt Herp and his friend Doc Holiday found Ike Clanton and Frank
56:31 Holiday found Ike Clanton and Frank
56:31 Holiday found Ike Clanton and Frank Stillwell
56:33 Stillwell
56:33 Stillwell laying in wait to possibly, as they put
56:36 laying in wait to possibly, as they put
56:36 laying in wait to possibly, as they put it, assassinate Virgil Herp for good and
56:40 it, assassinate Virgil Herp for good and

56:45 party. I mean, I'm kind of on their
56:45 party. I mean, I'm kind of on their side. Otherwise, it seems like a pretty
56:46 side. Otherwise, it seems like a pretty
56:46 side. Otherwise, it seems like a pretty strange coincidence. And here at this
56:49 strange coincidence. And here at this
56:49 strange coincidence. And here at this train depot, I Clinton once again ran
56:51 train depot, I Clinton once again ran
56:51 train depot, I Clinton once again ran off just like he did from the OK Corral
56:53 off just like he did from the OK Corral
56:53 off just like he did from the OK Corral gunfight, but they put a whole bunch of
56:56 gunfight, but they put a whole bunch of
56:56 gunfight, but they put a whole bunch of lead into Frank Stillwell. It became
57:00 lead into Frank Stillwell. It became
57:00 lead into Frank Stillwell. It became known as the Stillwell murder. Looks
57:02 known as the Stillwell murder. Looks
57:02 known as the Stillwell murder. Looks like according to this diagram, the
57:04 like according to this diagram, the
57:04 like according to this diagram, the depot was on the other side. So maybe
57:05 depot was on the other side. So maybe
57:06 depot was on the other side. So maybe I've heard incorrectly. This map was
57:07 I've heard incorrectly. This map was
57:08 I've heard incorrectly. This map was drawn by Wyatt Herp where he killed
57:10 drawn by Wyatt Herp where he killed
57:10 drawn by Wyatt Herp where he killed Stillwell just down here. Although this
57:12 Stillwell just down here. Although this
57:12 Stillwell just down here. Although this is passenger and freight, so multiple
57:14 is passenger and freight, so multiple
57:14 is passenger and freight, so multiple tracks. I don't think he said that. I
57:16 tracks. I don't think he said that. I
57:16 tracks. I don't think he said that. I think I I'm reading that diagram wrong
57:19 think I I'm reading that diagram wrong
57:19 think I I'm reading that diagram wrong cuz I've read over and over again that
57:20 cuz I've read over and over again that
57:20 cuz I've read over and over again that the depot is on the same footprint which
57:23 the depot is on the same footprint which
57:23 the depot is on the same footprint which would mean Frank Stillwell was killed
57:25 would mean Frank Stillwell was killed
57:25 would mean Frank Stillwell was killed off down this way down the track shot
