William Gargan was born on July 17, 1905 in Brooklyn, New York, USA as William Dennis Gargan. He was an actor, known for The Bells of St. Mary's (1945), You Only Live Once (1937) and Cheers for Miss Bishop (1941). He was married to Mary Kenny. He died on February 17, 1979 in San Diego, California, USA.
Because of Garnet's outspoken views and national reputation, he was a prime target of a working-class mob during the July 1863 draft riots in New York City. Rioters mobbed the street where Garnet lived and called for him by name. Fortunately several white neighbors helped to conceal Garnet and his family. In February 12, 1865, Garnet became the first black person to deliver a sermon in the House of Representatives. In 1876 Garnet began a physical and mental decline and expressed a great wish to die and be buried on African soil. He was able to realize this wish. He died in Africa on February 12, 1882, and was given a state funeral by the Liberian government. Engraving of Henry Highland Garnet.
