===Hardin-Sublet Gunfight===
On August 7, 1872, [[John Wesley Hardin]] and Phil Sublet got into a gambling dispute at John Gates' Saloon.  The saloon was a plank structure with a bar and a ten pin alley.  After making peace, Sublet left the saloon and called out Hardin from the street south of the front door.  Hardin appeared at that door and Sublet fired one shot at him.  Hardin returned
fire not intending to kill him.  Distracted, Hardin was pulled into a middle door and Sublet wounded him with the other barrel of his shotgun. Hardin then went after him through the streets and into a dry goods store.  After a pistol malfunction, Hardin fired again and hit Sublet in the shoulder.  Too weak from his wounds, Hardin was unable to pursue him.<ref name="JWH" />
