Morgan Earp

Morgan Earp was shot through the shoulders in the gunfight near the O.K. Corral. Though he recovered from this, the outlaws murdered him a few months later. It was his death that prompted Wyatt to launch his vendetta against the outlaws. It was actually the Vendetta, not the gunfight, that made Wyatt famous.
