"Old Pete (Browning) enjoyed notoriety. When traveling over the circuit, the Gladiator would frequently alight from the train and exhibit himself to people at the station, and if no one recognized him, he would introduce himself as the champion batter of the American Association. He has been known to impart his identity to a lone station agent." - Louisville Times Obituary (September 11, 1905)
