The Earps took Morgan's body by wagon the next day to Benson, where they hired a wagon to get to the New Mexico and Arizona railroad station in [[Contention City, Arizona|Contention]]. From Contention, they caught a train to Tucson.<ref>{{cite web|title=Contention City and It's Mills|url=http://www.wyattearpexplorers.com/contention-city-and-its-mills.html|publisher=Wyatt Earp Explorers|access-date=27 May 2011|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110529010246/http://www.wyattearpexplorers.com/contention-city-and-its-mills.html|archive-date=29 May 2011}}</ref> While waiting for the next train in Tucson, they saw Stilwell apparently lying in wait and killed him. From Tucson, James accompanied Virgil, Maddie, Ally and Morgan's body to [[Colton, California]] where Morgan's wife and parents were waiting. Morgan was first buried in the old city cemetery of Colton, near [[Mount Slover]]. When the cemetery was moved in 1892, Morgan's body was reburied in the [[Colton, California#Cemeteries|Hermosa Cemetery]] in Colton.
