George Moran was the last captain of gang of bootleggers, gamblers,
union organizers, and safeblowers known as the North Side mob. The
North Siders rose to underworld fame under the shrewd leadership
of their first chief, Dean O'Banion (1892-1924). O'Banion's 1924
murder at the hands of Capone-Genna gunmen restored the North Siders
to their fighting roots. They remained perpetually at war with Capone,
and the strife did not finally end until Capone was found guilty
of tax evasion and packed off to prison.
