and tombstone sometime around the year 1880. Matter of fact, young Bert even once had himself

a job sweeping out horse stalls over at the OK Corral. That said, he never really got much of a formal

education. What I can tell, most of his learning was just done on the streets.

And by the time Bert was just 19 years old, he was already working as a deputy under Coach
