John Higgins (gunman)
John Pinckney Calhoun Higgins, better known as "Pink" Higgins (1848 - December 18, 1914), was a little-known gunman and cowboy of the Old West. He killed more men in his lifetime than better-known gunfighters.
==Early life==
John Pinckney Calhoun Higgins〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=21026760 )〕 was born in Atlanta, Georgia. He acquired the nickname "Pink" at an early age, due to his first middle name. His mother and father had moved from Georgia to Texas around 1851, specifically Lampasas County, Texas. Higgins began taking part in cattle drives north into Kansas while a teenager, working on his father's ranch. He was too young to serve during the American Civil War and remained in Lampasas County for most of his youth, working as a cowboy. During that time, he took part in numerous skirmishes with hostile Indians and in the hanging of several cattle rustlers, and was an active member of what was known as the ''Law and Order League'', organized to battle horse and cattle thieves, and other outlaw activities.
