“The darkest hours of the night are those which immediately precede the dawn. We believe the time is not far distant when our grand old camp will rise from the waves and shake her crested head aloft with pride as of yore.”

—John Clum, editor of the Tombstone Epitaph, in February, 1900. As quoted in Tombstone: Myth and Reality by Odie B. Faulk, 1972.
