What happens

Johnny Ringo is an American Western television series starring Don Durant that aired on CBS from October 1, 1959, until September 29, 1960. It is loosely based on the life of notorious gunfighter and outlaw Johnny Ringo, also known as John Peters Ringo or John B. Ringgold, who tangled with Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and Buckskin Franklyn Leslie. "There really was a gunfighter-turned-lawman named Johnny Ringo in the 1880s, though it is doubtful that his exploits resembled those portrayed in this series." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
