According to the book Volcano Revisited Billy Boyo didn't die from a brain tumor but rather was murdered.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Boyo

I know it's not the best source of accurate info but it does mention that it was thought Billy & Little Harry had both been shot but this was wrong & he fought for 2 months before succumbing to the disease.
