| | Leadville Colorado history : Doc Holliday |
 | | As for Holliday himself, he left Arizona Territory and like hundreds of miners, gamblers and gunfighters came to Colorado, first to Denver, still swearing vengeance on Ringo, Clanton, Spencer and Swilling if he could ever find them, (not knowing that they were hiding out in Mexico, near Fronteras, Sonora). |
 | | It was on July 14, 1882 when Doc Holliday was allegedly still in Colorado that John Yoast, a teamster in Arizona Territory, discovered a body intertwined among the branches of an oak tree east of the Dragoon Mountains. |
 | | But Ringo's death didn't mean an end to the killing, and even though Holliday arrived in Leadville, Colorado and started to lead a quiet and uneventful life, sure enough on the afternoon of August 19, 1884 he ran into some of his old enemies, Johnny Tyler and Billy Allen. |
