Wikipedia, June 30, 2021
John Brown (May 9, 1800 – December 2, 1859) was an American abolitionist leader. A man of religious conviction,[1][2] Brown believed he was "an instrument of God",[3]:248 raised up to strike the death blow to American slavery, a "sacred obligation".[4][3]:189 Brown felt that violence was necessary to end American slavery, since peaceful efforts had failed.[5][4][3] Brown said repeatedly that in working to free the enslaved he was following the Golden Rule,[6][7] as well as the U.S. Declaration of Independence which states that "all men are created equal".[8][9][10][11]:721 Brown first gained national attention when he led anti-slavery volunteers and his own sons during the Bleeding Kansas crisis of the late 1850s, a state-level civil war over whether Kansas would enter the Union as a slave state or a free state. He was dissatisfied with abolitionist pacifism, saying of pacifists, "These men are all talk. What we need is action—action!". In May 1856, Brown and his sons killed five supporters of slavery in the Pottawatomie massacre, a response to the sacking of Lawrence by pro-slavery forces. Brown then commanded anti-slavery forces at the Battle of Black Jack and the Battle of Osawatomie. In October 1859, Brown led a raid on the federal armory at Harpers Ferry, Virginia (today West Virginia), intending to start a slave liberation movement that would spread south; he had prepared a Provisional Constitution for the revised, slavery-free United States he hoped to bring about. He seized the armory, but seven people were killed, and ten or more were injured. Brown intended to arm slaves with weapons from the armory, but only a few slaves joined his revolt. Those of Brown's men who had not fled were killed or captured by local militia and U.S. Marines, the latter led by Robert E. Lee. Brown was hastily tried for treason against the Commonwealth of Virginia, the murder of five men, and inciting a slave insurrection. He was found guilty of all counts and was hanged on December 2, 1859, the first person executed for treason in the history of the United States.[12]:179 The Harpers Ferry raid and Brown's trial, both covered extensively in national newspapers, escalated tensions that led, a year later, to the South's long-threatened secession and the American Civil War. Southerners feared that others would soon follow in Brown's footsteps, encouraging and arming slave rebellions. He was a hero and icon in the North. Union soldiers marched to the new song "John Brown's Body", that portrayed him as a heroic martyr. Newly-freed African Americans sang the same song, and they often lowered their voices when speaking of Brown, as if he were a saint.[13] Brown has been variously described as a heroic martyr and visionary, and as a madman and terrorist.[14][10][15]

Title:
Bartow Darrach letters, 1852-1856.
115 ALS written by Bartow Darrach while living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Kentucky; and Kansas Territory; most to his parents, James and Helena White Darrach, New York; his brother, William Bradford Darrach; and other family members in the East. Five letters are dated at Philadelphia, 1852-1853, and relate to the completion of Darrach's medical studies and his application to the United States Navy for an appointment as a medical officer. Approximately half of the letters are dated at Eddyville, Kentucky, 1853-1855, and concern Darrach's work in establishing a medical practice there. Darrach moved to Kansas Territory in 1855; ca. fifty letters dated at Osawatomie, 1855-1856, contain a detailed narrative of the lives of settlers and events of the Kansas border war, including discussion of elections and constitutional conventions; events in Lawrence and other fighting between free soil and slavery advocates; and the killings at Pottawatomie by John Brown and the subsequent sack of Osawatomie. The letters are accompanied by an ink and watercolor portrait, 1843.

Executive Papers of Governor John Letcher, 1859-1863
Title:
Executive Papers of Governor John Letcher, 1859-1863
Governor Letcher's Executive papers are organized into two series. Series have been designated for Chronological files and Subject files. The bulk of the material can be found in the Chronological files' series which primarily consists of incoming correspondence between 1860 to 1863. Although Governor Letcher did not take office until 1860, there is correspondence addressed to Governor Letcher soon after he was elected between November and December 1859. Correspondence, court cases, telegrams, poll books, pardons, proceedings, receipts, clippings, reports, petitions, resignations, contracts, proclamations, requisitions, resolutions, and other items can be found in this series. Noteworthy correspondents include Jefferson Davis, Gen. Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Joseph R. Anderson (President Tredegar Iron Works), L.P. Walker & James A. Seddon (C.S.A. Secretaries of War), and James Mallory (C.S.A. Secretary of the Navy). The correspondence from Jefferson Davis involves Virginia troops (May 2, 1861), the reduction of service for some soldiers' companies (July 16, 1861), the enrollment of conscripts (Dec. 2, 1862), and the reduction of the number of slaves working on fortifications (Feb. 25, 1863 & March 5, 1863). As commander of all land and naval forces in Virginia, Gen. Robert E. Lee received correspondence referred from Governor Letcher. One such letter relates to the civil and military government alleged to have been established in Norfolk and Portsmouth (March 24, 1862). These letters include Lee's response written on the endorsement. Stonewall Jackson wrote Governor Letcher on several occasions. On October 12, 1861, Jackson wrote regarding Letcher's intended visit. On January 31, 1862, Jackson wrote Letcher complaining about an order from the Secretary of War to fall back from Romney. Jackson expresses his opposition to this order and requests a resignation and another order to be sent back to the Virginia Military Institute. Joseph R. Anderson wrote to Governor Letcher asking him to exempt workers at Tredegar from volunteer service (May 7, 1861) and for other purposes. Also included is a contract between Anderson and the Board of Commissioners to manufacture arms (Aug. 23, 1860). A letter from Secretary of the Navy, James Mallory, involves the transfer of the steamers Jamestown and Yorktown to the Confederate navy (July 15, 1861). Much of the correspondence to Governor Letcher consists of recommendations of Virginians for appointments. The governor appointed coroners; inspectors of salt, flour, tobacco, warehouses and vessels; commissioners; Bank of Virginia directors; and notaries, in addition to positions in the Provisional Army. Numerous petitions accompany these recommendations. Letters by individuals stating their desire to be considered for a particular position are also present. One such letter from Elizabeth L. Stuart asks the governor to reserve a position in the Virginia Provisional Army for her son, Jeb Stuart (April 23, 1861). Governor Letcher dealt with numerous such requests for commissions in the Provisional Army before the governor transferred all Virginia's forces to the Confederate States. Also common are letters and telegrams, mostly from April 1861, to the governor from individuals in support of secession and others who are tendering their service for the war effort. Letcher sent letters to the convention nominating colonels, calling volunteers into service, and issuing commissions (May 1-2, 1861). Letcher nominated Robert E. Lee as commander of all land and naval forces with the rank of Major General (April 22, 1861) and also Thomas J. Jackson as colonel of volunteers. Along these same lines are various requests for exemptions from military service. An ordinance of the convention exempted railroad officers and employees from service. A list of Central Railroad exemptions can be found in these papers (July 16, 1861). An important function of the governor was issuing reprieves and pardons. Copies of court cases, clippings, petitions, and correspondence supplement the pardons. All of the pardon papers are filed separately in the chronological series at the end of each month. One significant pardon involved the case of Notley P. Adams of Patrick County who was charged with arson. Letcher pardoned Adams in December 1863, after he served three years in the penitentiary. A map of the area in Patrick County where the crime was committed is included in the papers. The governor also received and issued proclamations and requisitions regarding escaped convicts and fugitives. Significant are the requisitions involving conspirators who assisted John Brown in his raid on Harper's Ferry (see below). Other noteworthy documents within the chronological series include: a rough copy of the ordinance of the Virginia Convention defining the duties of the Advisory Council (April 23, 1861); a letter from the Virginia Convention to Jefferson Davis inviting him to make Richmond the seat of government of the Confederacy (April 27, 1861); an anonymous letter to Letcher warning of the U.S. government's intention to take Arlington Heights (May 6, 1861); a letter from Letcher to Sam Houston, Governor of Texas, enclosing a copy of the resolution in response to the request of South Carolina and Mississippi for a Conference of the Southern States (May 24, 1860); a resolution of the state of Tennessee on state's rights (May 24, 1860); telegrams from the states of Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi announcing their secession from the Union (Jan. 10-12, 1861); a proclamation by Letcher to the people of northwestern Virginia regarding secession (June 17, 1861); deed of the state of Virginia to the Confederate States of America transferring property including all the machinery and stores at Harper's Ferry and the armory in Richmond (Oct. 3, 1861). A drawing of a "steam gun" designed by Philip Strickler (Oct. 29, 1861); a message from Letcher to the General Assembly announcing the death of former President John Tyler (Jan. 18, 1862); a 15-page report by Jeb Stuart to Gen. Lee on the Pamunkey expedition (June 23, 1862); lists of negro convicts employed by Joseph R. Anderson & Co. (Sept. 3, 1862); a list of prisoners taken by Maj. Gen. Floyd confined in the State Armory (Dec. 29-30, 1862); report of S. Bassett French calculating the slave population in those counties where requisitions were made for slaves to work on fortifications (March 20, 1863); deed of the Hollywood Cemetery Company to the Commonwealth of Virginia for a section to bury President Tyler (March 17, 1863); a telegram from James P. Smith, Guineas Station, to Letcher regarding the condition of Gen. Jackson (May 5, 1863); and a message from Letcher to the House of Delegates transmitting a statement of the number of troops furnished the Confederate States by Virginia (Oct. 8, 1863). The second series of Governor Letcher's Executive papers contains subject files. There are three subjects represented in this series: the Advisory Council, John Brown's Raid, and Railroads. The materials related to the Advisory Council include correspondence, proceedings, and reports of committees between April and June of 1861. Governor Letcher often referred correspondence to the Advisory Council and the endorsement on the letter details the Council's action with regard to the letter. One letter, in particular, from Robert E. Lee is relevant to the preparations for the defense of Virginia (June 15, 1861). The majority of the correspondence, however, concerns appointments in the Provisional Army and other military matters. The proceedings contain reports of the Committee for Courts of Justice, the Committee of Propositions and Grievances, the Committee on Finance, and the Committee on Military Affairs. The John Brown's Raid documents include correspondence related to the request for pardon of conspirators, Aaron D. Stevens and Albert Hazlett, and information concerning fugitive conspirators Barclay Cappoc, Owen Brown, and Francis Merriam. Particularly interesting is a printed protest by the Democratic members of the Iowa General Assembly condemning Governor Kirkwood's refusal to extradite Barclay Cappoc. There are copies of the indictments for Francis Merriam, Jeremiah Anderson, Owen Brown, and Charles P. Tidd. Military expenses incurred by militia, yet unpaid, are also documented here. Lastly, material concerning railroads include correspondence with regard to railroad connections and the ordinance of the convention relieving railroad workers from military duty and arming them for the defense of the railroads. A roll of the Richmond & Danville Railroad Guard is included. Accession 19736 has been included in Governor Letcher's Executive Papers. This accession consists of a letter from Susan E. Wash to Governor Letcher asking that her husband be relieved from military service. Endorsement of Gov. Letcher, dated May 7, 1861, grants the request. Accession 19923 has been included in Governor Letcher's Executive Papers. This accession consists of a letter from Major Gen. T.J. Jackson, Winchester, to Governor Letcher. In this letter, Jackson comments on the military situation and requests reinforcements and arms to be sent to Winchester, Nov. 30, 1861. Accession 33651 has been included in Governor Letcher's Executive Papers. This accession consists of a letter from John H. Winder to Governor Letcher regarding the sentence of J.C. Northwood, April 6, 1863.

Title:
Anna Mercur papers, 1860-1861, 1930.
The collection includes twelve letters, August 1860-July 1861, received by Anna Mercur from her sisters and other relatives and friends. The prewar letters provide the candid opinions of women, from both the northern and southern viewpoint, on the secession crisis and the outbreak of the Civil War. The letters comment freely on the Republican Party, John Brown, Abraham Lincoln, the Crittenden Resolution, and abolitionists. Wartime letters express similar sentiments and document problems sending mail to the North, financial strains, and anxiety over the activities of sons and husbands organizing to fight for the Confederacy. Other topics in the letters are boarding school life in Eufaula, Ala., and Wilmington, N.C.; family events; and the reading habits of family members and friends. Also included are a photograph, ca. 1880s-1890s, of a woman on a casino boardwalk in Monte Carlo, Monaco, and a clipping, 1930, documenting the ancestry of George A. Jewett of Des Moines, Iowa.

Title:
John Brown collection, 1814-1859.
The collection consists of papers relating to John Brown from 1814-1859. Over half of the correspondence (1826-1849) consists of Brown's letters from various places in Pennsylvania and Ohio to kinsman and business associate Seth Thompson. The letters reflect his perpetual financial difficulties as well as his frequent change of occupation. A scattering of letters (1814-1840) written from various places in Ohio by his father Owen Brown, his uncle Abiel Brown, and his brother Oliver O. Brown concern family and business matters with only occasional references to politics. A second group of letters (1857-1858) from fellow abolitionist, Franklin Benjamin Sanborn, discuss the Free-Soil contest in Kansas, the National Kansas Committee, the various state committees, and the amassing of arms to be turned over to Brown for his operations in Kansas.

White, Caroline Barrett, 1828-1915. Papers, 1844-1915.
Title:
Papers, 1844-1915.
Caroline Barrett White kept an extraordinary diary for sixty-five years (12 May 1849 to 1 June 1914). Its pages provide a wealth of information, especially in terms of the social history of that era. Included in the earlier diaries are detailed accounts of her teaching career, which she referred to as "a thankless task"; visits with relatives and friends in neighboring towns; and her courtship and happy marriage. The entries record her observations of nature, her attitudes and moods, and her political opinions, which found their fullest expression during the Civil War era. As Francis became financially successful, Caroline began to record the daily activities of a comfortable Victorian housewife, such as the regimen of social calls, shopping trips to Boston, the trials and tribulations inherent in the hiring-and keeping-of servants (she bemoans her troubles with Irish "domestics"), attendance at plays and concerts, visits to dressmakers, house and garden renovations and redecoration, the purchase of furnishings and accessories, and, after 1856, the increasing responsibility of providing good care for her children. A large portion of her diary is devoted to highly descriptive accounts of the seven European tours, which Caroline and Francis made between 1855 and 1894, as well as many American tours, such as those to the Pacific Coast. The diary also includes her observations about labor unions and the working classes, women's suffrage, Catholicism, child-rearing techniques, and the process of aging. There are also details of medical practices of that era, including an account of a mastectomy, 1870, during which Caroline assisted. A few entries (e.g., vol. 3 - 12/6/1851; vol. 7 - 4/13/1858 and 4/28/1858) where apparently written by Francis White. This colleciton contains a folder of family correspondence, receipts, and miscellaneous items, 1844 to 1915, as well as a photograph of Caroline, 1894, and a photograph of Cliffside, c. 1890, copied from the originals lent by Carolyn Olmstead in October 1979.

Title:
Manuscripts of Israel Mitchell, 1857-ca.1924.
Four of these five manuscripts were written by Israel Mitchell. These include a speech about agriculture, a manuscript on religion, science and astronomy and two items about slavery. Of the latter two items, the first is a poem written circa 1860 against the institution of slavery, which mentions the abolitionist John Brown. The other is a handwritten copy of a speech Mitchell gave before the Oregon legislature in 1857 regarding both slavery and the Oregon constitution; Mitchell is arguing that Oregon should enter the United States as a free state. He also talks about abolitionists and the United States constitution. The fifth item is a group of notes on Mitchell family genealogy (with mention of Mitchell's grand-uncle Daniel Boone).

Parker, Richard, 1810-1893. Record of the trial of John Brown and his associates n.d.
Title:
Record of the trial of John Brown and his associates n.d.
Parker first reviews the results of the Jefferson County Court held October 25, 1859, at which Brown was indicted, then briefly summarizes the events of each day of the Circuit Court trial of Brown and his followers. For November 2 he notes "Verdict guilty of treason as charged in 1st count of indict. - also of advising & conspiring with slaves & others to rebel as charged in 2d count of the indict. & of murder in 1st degree as charged in 3rd and 4th counts--John Brown, led in & it being demanded of him ... if any thing for himself he has or knows to say why the court should not proceed to judgment, & execution --but had nothing but what he had before said. Therefore it is considered that he be hanged by the neck until he is dead ..." There are also notes on the separate trials of John E. Cook and Albert Hazlett who were not ordered returned to Virginia by Pennsylvania authorities until October 26 and very brief mentions of the trials of John Copeland and African-Americans Shields Green and Edwin Coppoc.

Title:
Writings, 1864-1895.
This volume consists of a miscellany of writings by Carpenter. There is an essay on the peace movement initiated by Democrats in 1864, several on Freemasonry in Rhode Island from 1879 to 1887, several on legal cases and reform of the judicial system, and essays on the assassination of James A. Garfield, civil service reform, one entitled "Washington the Founder of the Nation," another on the protective tariff, and another titled "The Last of the Prophets: A Study on an Hour and of a Man,"--an essay on John Brown. In addition there was an address, "The Care of the Defective and Disorderly," as well as a photograph of Judge Carpenter. Altogether these writings seem to constitute the literary remains, including the entire printed output, of George Moulton Carpenter.

Title:
Papers of Alexander Irvine, 1863-1986 (bulk 1906-1941).
The collection consists mostly of Irvine's manuscripts, arranged alphabetically by title. The entirety of the first and the beginning of the second box consist of manuscript drafts - both typescript and autograph - of chapters from the author's larger works. The rest of the second box consists of manuscript drafts of sermons which Irvine gave after the turn of the century, most of them from his 1909-1910 tenure at the Church of the Ascension in New York City. The third upright box consists entirely of Irvine's manuscript essays, many of which appeared in publication. Most of these manuscripts are undated but it appears the bulk of these papers come the Irvine's final thirty years. The collection's final upright box contains the rest of Irvine's manuscripts. It also contains twenty-four folders of Irvine's correspondence, three folders of news clippings, six folders of ephemera, and one folder of photos. There are several items in oversize. Two large scrapbooks, each housed individually, contain a great deal of ephemera, photographs, and correspondence which Irvine himself organized. Other items in oversize include a small scrapbook containing mainly photos and news clippings from 1922 to 1938, and a large, thin packet containing four editions of The Psychological Review of Reviews from the early 1920s. There are also two oversize manuscripts: one a fragment from the draft of a script, and the other an undated essay titled "The Cost of Something for Nothing." Subjects in the collection include: John Brown; California; Eugene Debs; Carter Glass; Grand Army of the Republic; Hitler Youth; John L. Lewis; Abraham Lincoln; Jack London; Mexican Revolution; New York City; Franklin Delano Roosevelt; Upton Sinclair; socialism; tuberculosis; Mark Twain; World War I; World War II; vaudeville; vigilantes; and Yale University.

The collection consists of eleven letters, ten signed "Perkins and Brown" and one signed "John Brown" (dated March 30, 1852), all in Brown's handwriting.

Title:
Record of the trial of John Brown and his associates [manuscript] n.d.
Parker first reviews the results of the Jefferson County Court held October 25, 1859, at which Brown was indicted, then briefly summarizes the events of each day of the Circuit Court trial of Brown and his followers. For November 2 he notes "Verdict guilty of treason as charged in 1st count of indict. - also of advising & conspiring with slaves & others to rebel as charged in 2d count of the indict. & of murder in 1st degree as charged in 3rd and 4th counts--John Brown, led in & it being demanded of him...if any thing for himself he has or knows to say why the court should not proceed to judgment, & execution --but had nothing but what he had before said. Therefore it is considered that he be hanged by the neck until he is dead...." There are also notes on the separate trials of John E. Cook and Albert Hazlett who were not ordered returned to Virginia by Pennsylvania authorities until October 26 and very brief mentions of the trials of John Copeland and African-Americans Shields Green and Edwin Coppoc.

Title:
Autograph letters signed from Fanny Kemble to various recipients [manuscript], 1831-1890.
Correspondents: Lady [Anne] Byron, F[rances Power] Cobbe, William [Bodham] Donne, Henry [William] Greville, Mary Charlotte Lloyd and Harriet St. Leger. Includes 167 letters, many letters incomplete, and 9 leaves from her journals. Many of the letters describe her experiences in America and her views on slavery and on the Civil War. Letters written from London, Ireland, Switzerland, Italy and the United States. A letter to Donne (307) tells of John Brown's Raid and castigates him as a "fanatic maniac." Some letters to Greville discuss New England's reactions to the possibility of England's entering the war. Several letters touch on Shakespeare. Othello is a sermon against inordinate affections. She did like [Charles] Kean's Othello. She thinks she would not like Fechter's; his Iago must be like her father's (347, 247, 249, 245). Sarah Bernhardt's portrayal of Lady Macbeth recalled Mrs. Siddons' notion of her as a small delicate fair blue-eyed woman (187). The letters refer constantly to her family and friends and to contemporary artists, actors, writers, preachers and politicians, among them Joanne Baillie (223), Ann Bradshaw (247), Emily Brontë (353), John Gibson, William Godwin (387), Nathaniel Hawthorne (381), Harriet Hosmer, Henry James, Charles Kingsley (387-389), Frederic Leighton, Longfellow (413), Macaulay, F. D. Maurice (393), Mendelssohn, Theodore Parker, Adelaide Procter (415) and Shelley (363). Also, a letter to Fanny Kemble from Frances P. Cobbe, July 8, [1875] (19b), a letter to Frances Cobbe from Fanny Kemble's maid, Eleanor Brianzoni, January 19, 1898, telling her of Fanny Kemble's death (457), a poem on Venice by Fanny Kemble, ca. 1861 (453) and several photographs and illustrations. Poem listed in Folger index of first lines. The fragments of her journals, 1831-1832, ca. 1840 and ca. 1850, include an anecdote about Mrs. Siddons and Richard Sheridan (435), musings on Lawrence's drawings of the Kemble family (449), a description of her feelings on seeing an actress on her first night (441) and a discussion of The tempest and A midsummer night's dream (439).

Inventory of the Everette B. Long Papers 1949-1981
Title:
Inventory of the Everette B. Long Papers 1949-1981
Everette Beach Long, one of America's foremost experts on the Civil War, was born on 24 October 1919, in Whitehall, Wisconsin to Cecil Everettee and Florence (Beach) Long. He attended Miami University in Oxford, Ohio from 1937 to 1939 and Northwestern University from 1939 to 1941. In 1942, E. B. Long married Barbara Conzelman. Devoting himself to historical research and teaching, and a prolific writer of historical works focusing on the American Civil War, Long was the director of research for Doubleday's multi-volume , written by Bruce Catton from 1955 to 1965. He was a member of the advisory council of the National Civil War Centennial Commission. Long was a member of the Chicago Civil War Round Table and served as its president from 1955 to 1956. He was a member of the Friends of the Chicago Public Library and was its president in 1960. Long died on 31 March 1981 in Chicago, Illinois, the day after the publication of his last work, . The E. B. Long Papers (1949-1981) consist of thirty-four boxes (40 linear ft), including: personal correspondence, manuscripts by Long and others, articles, booklets, essays, clippings, photocopies, research notes, maps, brochures, and photographs. While most of the materials in this collection are dated in the twentieth century, there are several original Civil War documents of the nineteenth century. Of further interest are the drafts of Allan Nevins's , which were edited by E. B. Long, and the nine long index boxes of Long's research notes on the Civil War. The papers have been divided into the following categories: personal correspondence, manuscripts by Long, manuscripts by others, general files covering a wide range of subjects, drafts of Allan Nevins' , research notes on the Civil War, index card files of articles, and miscellaneous volumes of clippings. The correspondence is arranged both chronologically for general correspondence and alphabetically for correspondence with specific individuals, resulting in some overlapping of dates. Correspondents include Bruce Catton, the Civil War Round Table, Doubleday and Company, Allan Nevins, Lowell Reedinbaugh, and John Y. Simon.

Sanborn, F. B. (Franklin Benjamin), 1831-1917. ALS, 1874 January 16 : Concord, [Massachusetts], to Ann C. Smith.
Title:
ALS, 1874 January 16 : Concord, [Massachusetts], to Ann C. Smith.
Sanborn was one of the "Secret Six," a group of abolitionists who had knowledge of John Brown's plans to seize Harper's Ferry. This letter is written 15 years after Brown's death, to the wife of another member of the group, Gerrit Smith. Smith was on his deathbed, and his wife was apparently concerned about papers relating to the earlier incident. Sanborn writes that " ... my first proceeding, upon hearing of the attack at Harper's Ferry, was to go over ... all papers ... then in my hands ... and destroyed what would implicate others ..." He wenton to say that he now regretted the destruction of so many of these papers, "forthe only sure way to prevent false history from passing current is to promulgate the true account, and for this all available documentsare needed."

Title:
Autograph note related to the John Brown memorial meeting : [Concord, Mass.], [1859 Dec. 2].
Thoreau records that John S. Keyes read at the memorial service for the abolitionist John Brown held in Concord, Mass. on Dec. 2, 1859. Below this "The Execution of Montrose" is written lightly in pencil (possibly in Franklin B. Sanborn's hand). Thoreau also notes that the "passages selected by A.B. Alcott" and an "original poem, by a friend of Capt. Brown, were omitted for want of time." Alcott's passages and the poem appear in James Redpath's printed account of the service in Echoes of Harper's Ferry.

Title:
Constitution, 1836,1840.
The constitution includes a Preface which states the reasons why the society is against slavery, laws, goal (abolition of slavery), meeting times, and list of members. A list of 19 members and officers is attached. Brief annual meeting minutes list officers elected only for Dec. 6, 1837, Dec. 1838, Dec. 1839, and Dec. 1840. A separate (later, undated) note suggests that member Samuel J. Brown was a relative of the infamous John Brown who attacked Harper's Ferry in 1859, thereby becoming a martyr for the cause of abolition.

Title:
Bartow Darrach letters, 1852-1856.
115 ALS written by Bartow Darrach while living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Kentucky; and Kansas Territory; most to his parents, James and Helena White Darrach, New York; his brother, William Bradford Darrach; and other family members in the East. Five letters are dated at Philadelphia, 1852-1853, and relate to the completion of Darrach's medical studies and his application to the United States Navy for an appointment as a medical officer. Approximately half of the letters are dated at Eddyville, Kentucky, 1853-1855, and concern Darrach's work in establishing a medical practice there. Darrach moved to Kansas Territory in 1855; ca. fifty letters dated at Osawatomie, 1855-1856, contain a detailed narrative of the lives of settlers and events of the Kansas border war, including discussion of elections and constitutional conventions; events in Lawrence and other fighting between free soil and slavery advocates; and the killings at Pottawatomie by John Brown and the subsequent sack of Osawatomie. The letters are accompanied by an ink and watercolor portrait, 1843.

Title:
The John Brown - Luther Humphrey lithograph facsimile letter collection. 1859-1947.
The John Brown - Luther Humphrey facsimile letter collection contains John Brown's letter to his cousin, Rev. Luther on Nov. 19, 1959, while Brown was under sentence to death by hanging. The letter dated Dec. 2, 1859, was once thought to be the original; however later evidence revealed that it was a lithographed reproduction. The collection also continues materials related to the discovery that the letter was a reproduction. Finally, the collection contains a photographic copy of John Brown's portrait from the original oil painting.

Title:
Daniel R. Hundley diary, 1859.
The Daniel R. Hundley diary was kept by an Alabamian while he was in Chicago seeking a career as an author. The diary contains daily records of his activities, and his reactions as a southern Baptist, living in the North, to national and international political issues such as abolition. Of particular interest are his scathing comments on John Brown and his "assassins," whose fates he followed very closely in the days after the Harper's Ferry raid.

Papers, 1843-1903.
This collection of correspondence, essays, articles, and newspaper clippings has as its chief focal point the Kansas conflict in the 1850's. The New England Emigrant Aid Company and similar organizations undertook to send settlers to Kansas from the North East to counteract the influence of the South in determining the free vs. slave status of Kansas on its becoming a state. The Kansas theme runs throughout the collection in contemporary materials as well as in reminiscences and historical narratives written some thirty to fifty years subsequently. Other places important to the collection are West Virginia, Massachusetts, and New York.

Title:
Topical pamphlet collection, <1741>-<1996>.
A long-established, artificial, still-growing collection consisting largely of printed pamphlets, with articles, reprints, some ephemera, typescripts, photocopied manuscript material, and one set of slides (to accompany a typescript item) also included. Some of the items within were bound during the 19th century, some are loose. Covering a broad range of topics relating to American (and particularly New England) history, life, and thought, the Topical Pamphlet Collection provides background and context for the more specifically Concord-related materials in the Concord Free Public Library Special Collections. The collection--not to be confused with the Concord Pamphlet Collection--includes <883> items, dating from <1741> to <1996>. Series I (Historical Topics) includes <352> items dating between <1741> and <1996>, Series II (Individuals, As Author or Subject) <300> items between <1761> and <1963>, Series III (Massachusetts Towns--History, Anniversaries, Description, etc.) <127> items between <1748> and <1991>, and Series IV (Pamphlet Materials on Multiple Topics, Organized by Form) <104> items between <1752> and <1940>. Some of the bound volumes include the occasional out-of-scope pamphlet. Moreover, there is some topical overlap of material in different subseries.

Title:
John Brown family letters : Kansas, 1855-1856.
Four ALS. In a letter of June 12, 1855 Wealthy writes from Brownsville to her sister-in-law Ruth Thompson. She tells of the trip from Ohio to Kansas and of the cholera outbreak onboard the steamer "New Lucy". She comments on the other passengers, who were mainly slaveholders and their wives. Wealthy goes on to describe their claims, extols the virtues of the Kansas climate and countryside, and urges Ruth and Henry Thompson to join them. In a letter from Osawatomie dated February 10, 1856, Frederick Brown writes of the events of January 15th that culminated in the murder of Mr. E. P. Brown [R. P. Brown?] by a group of proslavery men. In the first of two letters to family and friends, Jason Brown writes from Osawatomie on June 28, 1856. He tells of answering the call to defend the city of Lawrence and of receiving word of the taking of Lawrence and of the murder of five proslavery men on Pottawatomie Creek. He describes at length his and John Jr.'s imprisonment and their forced march to Lecompton and then Tecumseh. He briefly describes the skirmish at Hickory Point in which Salmon Brown and Henry Thompson were wounded. In Jason's letter of August 13, 1856 he tells of his attempts to protect the claims from looting and burning and reports that Missourians are said to be gathering to attack Osawatomie.

Title:
Papers of Franklin Benjamin Sanborn, 1851-1914.
The collection contains the manuscripts of 61 partial or complete poems, two partial verse plays, a biographical and critical discussion of Ralph Waldo Emerson, a prologue spoken by Edward W.

Letters to and from the Torch Press of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, concern the "Life of John Brown," "Recollections of 70 years, " and monographs on Bronson Alcott and Nathaniel Hawthorne, and discuss illustrations, printing, publication, costs and advertisements. Other topics include friends and fellow writers particularly Bronson Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry D. Thoreau, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Walt Whitman, Franklin Pierce, Ellery Channing and Richard W. Gilder; meetings of the American Social Science Association; his school in Concord, Mass.; lectures in Iowa; and thoughts on the outbreak of the Civil War. A facsimile of a letter from Nathaniel Hawthorne to an unidentified correspondent (mistakenly believed to have been Sanborn) mentions the "Old Manse." There are also three photographs, a newspaper clipping regarding Sanborn's arrest for disturbing the peace, and a typed description of Hawthorne's ideas.

Title:
James Claude Malin papers, 1916-1976.
The largest portion of James Malin's papers is correspondence. Correspondents include other historians and relatives of people on whom Malin did research. He also corresponded frequently with employees of the Kansas State Historical Society (Topeka). A small part of Malin's collection consists of his own autobiographical notes, composed in 1969. The collection also contains material from Malin's days as a graduate student at the University of Kansas (Lawrence); this series also includes transcripts of Malin's grades and a United States atlas published by Frank Hodder that Malin used & in which he wrote notes. A significant portion of the collection relates to his teaching career. Malin taught courses dealing with the history of Kansas, the history of the Trans-Mississippi West, general United States history, and various seminars. Another part of his collection consists mainly of notes pertaining to his research. Material dealing with Malin as a writer makes up a large series containing 12 units. Most of this series consists of articles, book reviews, chapters of books, and essays he wrote. A much smaller subseries consists of various documents dealing with Malin's writings. The 2nd unit is made up of his copyright certificates. The 5th unit consists of mailing lists for copies of Malin's writings. The 6th unit consists of lists of his writings. The 7th unit consists of general lists of works that include writings by Malin. The 9th unit consists of papers dealing with his efforts to have some of his works published. The 12th unit consists of a few miscellaneous papers that relate to Malin's writings. A number of writings by others appear in the collection, but papers handed in to Malin by his students are not included. A second, smaller subseries consists of lists of writings by people other than Malin. Malin's own research notes contain much information on Kansas history. He had a great interest in demography and population. Major correspondents included George Anderson, Lee Benson, Allan Bogue, Avery Craven, Earle DeLay, Larry Gara, Frank Hodder, Hans Jenny, Kirke Mechem & Nyle Miller of the Kansas State Historical Society, Fulmer Mood, and W.T. Root; other correspondents include William F. Buckley, George Docking, Henry Kissinger, James F. Malin, Lawrence Romaine of Weathercock House, and William Allen White.

Title:
August Bondi papers [microform], 1884-1952 (bulk 1903-1906).
August Bondi's Civil War diary describes daily activities of a Union noncommissioned officer in the West. The Biographical sketch of: August Bondi, 24 September 1903 (ser. A), is a brief account of his life. The most significant document in the collection is undoubtedly the Personal reminiscences of August Bondi, 25 April 1903 (ser. B), a narrative of his life prior to coming to Kansas & his return to Missouri in 1852, writings about political events in Missouri, descriptions of various jobs he held, his first trip to Kansas Territory, his brief stay in Douglas County, his return to Saint Louis, strife in territorial Kansas, and his service in the 5th Kansas Cavalry. He described the Confederate attack on his regiment at Pine Bluff, Ark., 25 October 1863. Correspondence, 1884-1952 (ser. C), supplements his personal reminiscences. Correspondence for 1903 is between Bondi and G. W. Martin, secretary of the Kansas State Historical Society (Topeka) about the republication of his articles about John Brown; letters give biographical information about Bondi's colleague Freeman Austin and provide details of his experiences with Brown and others during the territorial period.

Brown, John W., b. 1800. John W. Brown diary, 1821-1822; 1852-1865.
Title:
John W. Brown diary, 1821-1822; 1852-1865.
The diary, which contains daily entries of various lengths, covers the period of September 1821-March 1822, with a summary for the remainder of 1822, and the period July 1852-July 1865. The 1821-1822 entries deal chiefly with Brown's residence in Louisville, Ky., and his study of law with John Rowan of that place. They tell of his trip from home in Tennessee to Louisville, his course of study, his daily activities, and his trip home by steamboat. The diary ends with a summary for the remainder of 1822, chiefly discussing his settlement in Memphis, Tenn., where he practiced law. Interspersed in the diary are copies of letters to friends and relatives telling of his activities in Louisville, and several compositions. The diary for 1852-1865 contains a record of Brown's daily activities connected with farming, legal business, payment and collection of debts, purchases of supplies for the family, and work with an insurance company in Camden, Ark. It gives a full account of occurances in the family circle, including illnesses, marriages, births, deaths, schooling, and participation in community activities. Brown discussed the weather frequently and noted its effect on the crops and on the river, which was the chief means of communication with the markets where crops were sold and supplies purchased. Also, he recorded names of books he read, his views on religion, and his political views as a Whig and later a member of the American Party. He was stongly opposed to secession and the diary contains many criticisms of the civil and military policies of the Confederacy throughout the Civil War. The entries for 1861-1865 indicate that he continued his legal and business activities until June 1864, when he accepted a position as funding agent for the Treasurer of the Trans-Mississippi Department of the Confederate Army. Brown wrote much about monetary inflation, the difficulty of getting enough food and clothing, and the thefts and destruction by soldiers of both armies who were stationed in the vicinity of Camden. The last entries of the diary record the break-up of the Confederate armies in Arkansas, the arrival of Federal troops, and the beginning of Reconstruction.
