It becomes an issue when taxes are not paid and it is turned over to the city attorney. It is signed on the back “ refer to city atty./ V. W. Earp” in pencil. Virgil Earp was the Town Marshal and a Deputy U.S. Marshal at the same time in Tombstone. A Marshal would have been the equivalent of a chief of police today. On October 28th Virgil summons up his younger brothers for help in bringing in the Clantons for cattle rustling. That’s what brothers do. This sets the stage for some serious revenge fights. Virgil would take three slugs in the back from a shotgun which left him permanently maimed but lived until 1905. This document is also signed on the front by Mayor John Clum who befriends the Earps and himself becomes a target in an assassin’s attempt on his life later in the year. Mr. Clum, acting as an Indian Agent, was responsible for bringing in Geronimo without incident in 1877. 4 in. X 7 in. document, framed and matted at 9.5 in. X 12.5 in. Please see photo for details.

Most of the site lies in southwestern Macon County, adjacent to the east side of the town of Andersonville. The site also contains the Andersonville National Cemetery and the National Prisoner of War Museum. The prison was created in February 1864 and served until April 1865. The site was commanded by Captain Henry Wirz, who was tried and executed after the war for war crimes. The prison was overcrowded to four times its capacity, and had an inadequate water supply, inadequate food, and unsanitary conditions. Of the approximately 45,000 Union prisoners held at Camp Sumter during the war, nearly 13,000 died. The chief causes of death were scurvy, diarrhea and dysentery.” from Wikipedia.
