"Supporters of Association
football will be sorry to hear of the death, on the 10th inst., at New
York, of Conrad Warner, well known a decade since as goalkeeper for Upton
Park Football Club. He officiated between the posts for England v.
Scotland at Glasgow in 1878, and rendered good service to the London
Association when in its infancy. Deceased, who was only 38 years of age,
besides being a good footballer, was an excellent all-round athlete. As a
sprinter he was in the front rank, and he could hold his own at cricket,
lawn tennis, hockey, skating, and other pastimes."
