Jack Murdock was an up and coming boxer from Hell's Kitchen when he crossed paths with Margaret Grace, a shy teenager with deep religious convictions. The pretty seventeen year old caught the attention of twenty one year old Jack, and he pursued her relentlessly, between boxing bouts and training sessions, he would be found hanging around the Catholic church where she attended school. Her parents weren't at all fond of Murdock, to them he was just an uneducated punk, and they forbade her to see him.
However, Maggie had ideas of her own. While her faith was still strong, she liked Jack, and she had daydreams that perhaps the two of them would run off and live happily ever after together. It was a chilly winter night when she snuck out of her parents' home and ran away with the boxer. Jack and Maggie spent one week together playing house before Maggie's father found them and convinced her to come home and return to school.
She didn't know it then, but she was already pregnant.
By the time she realized she was expecting, her mind was made up. She couldn't raise a child, that wasn't the life she wanted anymore. Instead, the experience cemented her faith. Maggie decided to enter the convent and leave her child with Jack.
Jack had been heartbroken over the loss of Maggie, but he had endured. He wasn't the type to give up, and he wasn't about to go crying over some broad. However he was quite shocked when she showed up on his doorstep with a newborn, shoving the baby into his arms and making him swear to take care of him. Jack agreed, and with that promise, Maggie disappeared into the hot July night.
