His brother, Virgil, was acting City Marshal and temporarily deputized Wyatt and Doc Holliday.

->'''Sheriff Truman''': If I understand the law correctly, you need extradtion papers in order to get a statement from me, Mountie King. And you need a subpoena from a judge, Agent Hardy. Now, unless you gentlemen have that paperwork, I suggest you take your cooperation and stuff it.\\
'''Agent Hardy''':That attitude will not serve you, or Agent Cooper.\\
