Joseph Quinn : ウィキペディア英語版 | Joseph Quinn
Joseph Quinn (c. 1861-July 5, 1887) was a New York clerk, amateur wrestler and murder victim of Danny Lyons, a co-leader of the Whyos street gang. ==Early life== Although reportedly described as a pimp and rival Five Points thug, Quinn is described in newspaper accounts as ''"..a respectable young man, who for nine years past has been employed at the Cotton Exchange."'' A well known local athlete, he was a skilled amateur wrestler as a member of the Pastime and New York Athletic Clubs, whose career included winning the latter organization's spring competition as well as the State Championship's middleweight "catch-as-catch-can" wrestler. He also appeared at the first exhibition held by the Crib Club on April 9, 1885 in a catch wrestling match with fellow Pastime Club member John O'Brien both scoring a fall each. He would again face O'Brien in a catch-as-catch-can match, with each man gaining a pinfall before a draw was declared after wrestling another 10 minutes for the deciding third fall at an exhibition held by the New York Athletic Club on December 10, 1885.
