Ike Clanton was a rancher and gunfighter who, along with his brothers, had several conflicts with Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday. He and his brother Phineas forced Steven Taylor and Dodo Chaplet to sing for them. They thought the First Doctor was Doc Holliday.
Ike sent Steven to the gaol to smuggle a gun to "Doc Holliday". He and Phineas riled up the town against Wyatt Earp and took Steven hostage, threatening to hang him.
Ike took part in the gunfight at the O.K. Corral in October 1881, where he was shot and killed by Wyatt, Virgil Earp and Holliday. (TV: The Gunfighters)
