I did a little more checking on this story. There was an inquest the next day, bodies buried, and reports filed. Later the story was questioned and verified to be true. The Capt was a man of high reputation, was modest and did not seek or gain anything. I also read that he already had a reputation as a gunfighter and swordsman. There a few accoints of this story so it appears to be true. More so than of some of the more popular stories.
