 Virgil took Stilwell and Spence to Tucson for arraignment where they were held at the territorial jail.While Virgil was in Tucson, he deputized Wyatt to act in his place as assistant city marshal in Tombstone.The Cowboys thought the new arrest was in regard to a separate stage robbery that had occurred five days before October 8 near Contention City, and saw the new arrest as evidence that Stilwell and Spence were being unfairly harassed and targeted by the Earps for any stage robbery.
