description: "John Purroy Mitchel was the 96th mayor of New York, in office from 1914 to 1917. At 34, he was the third-youngest mayor of the city, and was sometimes referred to as the \"Boy Mayor of New York\". Mitchel won the 1913 mayoral election in a landslide, but lost the Republican primary in 1917 and came in second place in the general election as an Independent. He is remembered for his short career as leader of anti-Tammany Hall reform politics in New York, as well as for his early death as an Army Air Service officer during a training flight in Louisiana amid World War I."
