Suggested correction: He calls him "Emery." He even says his name earlier in the scene shortly after he walks in and he pronounces it the same way. There wasn't even a character or actor in the episode named Henry, so it's not as if he mixed up the name.

Factual error: In the opening dialogue by Matt Dillon on Boot Hill, the last shot of a tombstone has the date of 1982.

Suggested correction: It's not a "9" but an "8." The two 8's don't really match, but you can see the other tombstone with a similar "8." It's 1882.

Corrected entry: Dragon's dog, a Rottweiler, was not in the US until 1931, much later than the show.
Correction: The Rottweiler is considered one of the oldest breeds. It was only in 1931 that the American Kennel Club recognized the Rottweiler as an official breed. There's a difference between a breed existing and being recognized by a kennel club.
