Charlie Siringo
Charles Angelo Siringo (February 7, 1855 – October 18, 1928), was an American lawman, detective, and agent for the Pinkerton National Detective Agency during the late 19th century and early 20th century.
==Early life==
Siringo was born in Matagorda County, Texas, to an Irish immigrant mother and an Italian immigrant father from Piedmont.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thrillingdetective.com/eyes/siringo.html )〕 He attended public school until reaching the age of 15, when he started working on local ranches as a cowboy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Siringo, Charles Angelo )〕
In March, April and May 1877, Siringo was in Dodge City, Kansas, during an alleged confrontation between Clay Allison and Wyatt Earp, who was a Deputy Marshal at the time. Earp later claimed, after Allison's death in 1887, that he and Bat Masterson had forced Allison to back down from an impending confrontation. Siringo, however, later gave a written account of that incident which contradicted Earp's claim, stating that Earp never came into contact with Allison, and that two businessmen, cattleman Dick McNulty and the owner of the Long Branch Saloon, Chalkley Beeson, in Dodge City actually defused the situation.
After taking part in several cattle drives, Siringo stopped herding to settle down, get married (1884), and opened a merchant business in Caldwell, Kansas. He began writing a book, entitled ''A Texas Cowboy; Or Fifteen Years on the Hurricane Deck of a Spanish Pony''. A year later, it was published, to wide acclaim, and became one of the first true looks into life as a cowboy written by someone who had actually lived the life.
