"To New Yorkers, he was a superstar, and so much so that in 1915 a cub reporter, covering a Connecticut school game, came to understand just how much of an idol he was. Still a hero eighteen years after hanging up his cleats, Connor, a tall man with a handle-bar moustache could make kids 'stop in the streets and stand at respectful attention as he drove by in his horse-drawn buggy, making his daily rounds of the public schools.'" - Author David Quentin Voigt in American Baseball (1966)
