The Boy (1881-) was an American outlaw of the Wild West.
Biography[]
"The Boy" was born in Oklahoma in 1881, and he acquired his nickname for his young age during the time when he began his criminal career. He engaged in robberies across the Wild West and had developed a reputation for himself by the age of 15; he prided himself in saying that, at that rate, he could be President of the United States by the age of 30. By 1898, he had widespread criminal connections in the Western states, and he hired gunslingers such as the Arizona Kid to help bust his friends out of messy situations, to wipe out rival posses, and to deal with robbers who refused to cut him in on their activities. He used Flatneck Station in Guymon, Oklahoma and the major cattle town of Valentine, Nebraska as his bases of operations.
