Was Mattie Earp an opium addict as depicted in "Tombstone?"

Kenny submitted the question, "Was Mattie Earp an opium addict as depicted in the movie Tombstone?"

There is no evidence that Mattie had a laudanum (an opium-based pain killer) addiction while living in Tombstone.  The idea that she later died from a self-induced overdose of the drug is still a matter of debate.
