The passing of the Wild Bunch—a.k.a. The Oklahoma Long Riders
Bill Doolin's death was as violent as the rest of his Wild Bunch. As with him, all their deaths were by gunshot.U.S. Marshal Evett "E.D." Nix was appointed in 1893. He made his main priority the toppling of the Doolin Dalton Gang. Nix appointed one hundred marshals to the task, insisting they hunt down all outlaws, but with a priority on this gang. Marshal Nix was staunchly supportive of his deputies and in the means they felt were necessary to bring down the gang, and with him as their defender politically, his deputy marshals systematically hunted down the gang members.
