=== Ike Clanton court hearing === [[File:Morgan Earp.jpg|thumb|Morgan Earp, later murdered by the Cowboys]] While Wyatt waited for Virgil to return with Justice Wallace, witnesses overheard Wyatt tell Clanton, "You cattle thieving son-of-a-bitch, and you know that I know you are a cattle thieving son-of-a-bitch, you've threatened my life enough, and you've got to fight!", Ike Clanton was heard to reply, "Fight is my racket, and all I want is four feet of ground!"<ref name="campbelltestimony">{{cite web|url=http://law2.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/earp/campbelltestimony.html|title=Testimony of R.

K. Corral Inquest'' (1992)</ref> Ike reported in his testimony afterward that Wyatt Earp cursed him. He said Wyatt, Virgil and Morgan offered him his rifle and to fight him right there in the courthouse, which Ike declined. Ike also denied ever threatening the Earps.<ref name="iketestimony"/> Justice Wallace fined Ike $25 ({{Inflation|US|25|1881|fmt=eq|r=-1}}) plus court costs. Ike paid the fine and Virgil told Ike he could pick up his confiscated rifle and revolver at the Grand Hotel, which was favored by Cowboys when in town. Ike testified that he picked up the weapons from William Soule, the jailer, a couple of days later.<ref name=iketestimony/>
