Coke R. Stevenson
Coke Robert Stevenson (March 20, 1888 – June 28, 1975) was the 35th Governor of Texas from 1941 to 1947. He was the only 20th century Texan politician to serve as Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, as Lieutenant Governor, and then as Governor. In 1966, Recorded Texas Historic Landmark marker number 5118, honoring Stevenson, was placed on the Kimble County Courthouse grounds in Junction, Texas.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher=Texas Historical Commission )〕
==Early life==
He was born near the geographic center of Texas in Mason County to Robert Milton and Virginia Hurley Stevenson. His parents named him for Governor Richard Coke.〔Robert A. Caro: ''The Years of Lyndon Johnson: Means of Ascent,'' p. 146. New York 1991, Vintage. ISBN 978-0-679-73371-3〕 As a teenager, he went into the business of hauling freight with a six-horse wagon. While hauling freight he studied bookkeeping by the light of his nighttime campfires as part of a plan to begin a business or banking career. Offered a position as a janitor for the Junction State Bank, he accepted and sold his freight hauling business. He was soon promoted to bookkeeper, and he became the bank's cashier when he was twenty.
Stevenson studied law at night in the office of attorney and judge Marvin Ellis Blackburn while working at the bank, and attained admission to the bar in 1913.〔Robert Dallek, (Lone Star Rising: Lyndon Johnson and His Times, 1908-1960 ), Volume 1, 1991, page 315〕
