Is Doc Holliday in This Photo, or Not? - True West Magazine


True West Magazine
“Doc Holliday is ten feet tall and weighs a ton.”

J.J. Webb at the Old Town Las Vegas Jail, 1880
This photo first came to our attention when it appeared in Frederick Nolan’s book The West of Billy the Kid. Nolan published it, in part, because the Kid spent time in this jail in December 1880, when Pat Garrett escorted him and members of his gang to Santa Fe. Recently some historians have speculated that Holliday is in the photograph, to the right of Webb (in shackles).

Doc Holliday vs Mike Gordon
Hoodoo Brown’s court invents “excusable homicide”
Gambler draws a “pair of sixes” and is “froze out.”
By Bob Boze Bell
Based on the research of Gary L. Roberts
Doc Holliday was serious about his Las Vegas business ventures. He was building an annex to his saloon, which some believe was for a dental office. A shootout with a drunk would derail everything.

July 19, 1879
Mike Gordon has been on a multi-day binge-drunk when he comes into the Holliday Saloon on Centre Street, Las Vegas, New Mexico Territory, and demands that his “mistress” accompany him to another saloon on Railroad Street. She refuses because she is working, so he makes threats and leaves, allegedly swearing he will “kill someone, or be killed himself before morning.”
