Claims that live in other legs, kept with their verdicts

Pointers · printed so the claims are not met without their corrections

“Harold Urey was educated in Walkerton.” The People leg's verdict: not sustained — Urey was born here in 1893, and his family removed to Montana, where he was raised and schooled; no record puts him in a Walkerton schoolroom, and tellings that educate him here outrun their sources. The town's tie is the birth, and it is enough. “John Glenn himself dedicated the school.” Sustained, and rare: the astronaut stood in Walkerton on October 20, 1968 and dedicated the high school that bears his name — the People leg carries the day whole (article ppl-glenn-dedication), and this section prints the pointer because a claim that sounds like booster invention is, for once, the record. “Dillinger robbed the bank at Walkerton.” The Crime leg's trap, dispelled there whole: John Dillinger's first robbery, June 21, 1933, was at New Carlisle, Ohio — and the reader is warned both ways, because an Indiana New Carlisle stands next in this build's own sequence and inherits the same trap. No bank stood in Walkerton in Chapman's 1880 count at all — two saloons and no bank — and no bank robbery stands in the town's record reached. “The Everglades of the North.” The Grand Kankakee Marsh circulates in modern retelling under that name — a million acres of wet prairie, "the pantry of Chicago," drained by steam dredge in a generation — and the phrase is a basin-wide telling, hunting-and-conservation literature's, not a Walkerton coinage: the marsh's ground, the dredging record, and what of it survives are the Land leg's whole, and Walkerton's share prints there at its own size. The phrase's marsh claim is weighed here; the Tribes leg carries it as the valley's standing popular name in its Kankakee readings.
