This seems like strange wording: Garner was born near Detroit, Red River County, Texas, and was a Cherokee Indian on his father's side. He studied law, was admitted to the bar in 1890, and began practice in Uvalde, Uvalde County, Texas. He was a judge of Uvalde County from 1893 to 1896 and a member of the state House of Representatives from 1898 to 1902. I can't think of an appropriate revision, though

About a fourth of the way down the article it reads 'Garner supported federal intervention to break up the first sit-down strike'. The title of the link that it goes to is flint not first. I don't know enough history to know what is right. AusME 07:49, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
