The reaction to citizens of boston was instantaneous invite. Two days after he was arrested, 7000 bostonians broke in the jail to try to release him. The melee one u. S. Marshal was killed and injured. On may 27th, three days after burns was arrested, he was brought before the federal magistrate by his owner. There really up with a hearing to return a slave to slavery. The magistrate made the determination that he was a slave and ordered him to return to slavery. June 2nd, just a few days later, 2000 soldiers, u. S. Soldiers and marines escorted Anthony Burns to Boston Harbor to ship to return to slavery. 50,000 bostonians turned out. There wasnt much they can do. They werent going to take on the army. They were very upset about the whole thing. The cost of the federal government to return one slave to bondage was somewhere between 40,000 and 100,000 in 1854 money. To add insult to injury, may 30th president Franklin Pierce signed the kansas nebraska act. Which i bet 99. 9 know what happened. The people of kansas and nebraska had the opportunity to decide whether or not they wanted slavery. That was the kansas. Nebraska act. Theres possibility that at least one maybe two slave states would be added to the union. Boston was really a hot bed of antislavery activity at the time. For the most part, the businessmen were on the sidelines during this whole debate over slavery. With the capture of Anthony Burns, one particular bostonian businessman by the name of amos adam lawrence, does that name sound familiar . He was so unset by upset, he wrote a report to letter to hisup. We went to bed, old fashion conservative union wig and wake up stark mad abolitions. Adams put all his energy and money into ending slavery. He came from a very wealthy family. His father and uncle were very successful. Textile merchants in boston. They made a lot of money. They were generous with their money. His uncle amos uncle Abbott Lawrence gave 50,000 to establish science and engineering school. At that time it was the largest donation to any school in the country. His father who was name was amos retired early and spent the rest of his life doing philanthropy. They were very generous family. That was something that amos the son took over. At one point in his diary, he wrote he hoped he can make enough money from businesses to cop to support all programs programs that were important to him. Well, with his newfound start mad abolitionism, you wondering where that comes from right . He quickly had an opportunity to put his money where his mouth was. Gentleman in massachusetts by the name of eli fair, who was a member of the massachusetts legislature, had just created immigrant aid company and the purpose was to have interest in kansas. Mostly it was to make it easy as possible from people from new england to migrate to kansas. Well, fair was a really good idea person. Not so much a Good Business person. The company was sort of teetering when a mutual acquaintance introduced fair and lawrence. They connected in a partnership in which fair had good ideas lawrence had the money and all of a sudden, very successful. Lawrence realized what was really important at this early stage was to have was to get people to kansas as quibble as possible. He underwrote a survey party to go to kansas. Then he made a commitment to invest as much money necessary to make the trip to kansas as easy as possible and make it easy for the people who got there to make a living. He sent a scouting party. The scouting party reported back and very quickly the first immigrant party went to kansas arrived august 1, 1854. If you looking at the time line. Think with Anthony Burns returned to slavery in june. Short time they had the first grip party going to immigrant going to kansas. A number of immigrant parties followed first one. They decided when the second one arrived, they decided to name their town. They were thinking of all kinds of names. Boston they decided to name it lawrence after Amos Lawrence. One of the local residents had kind of a cute quote. He said the name sounded good. It didnt have a bad odor anywhere in the union. They decided to stick with the name of lawrence. Very early almost as soon as the town was founded there were three newspapers. From the herald of freedom which lasted longer than any of the first three, which is by the way, online if you interested in looking at it, you can really get a sense of how quickly lawrence developed. It had a number of ads in the paper. There were talked about businesses being established. It actually develop sod quickly it almost filled up before they knew what to do with all the people a came. As you remember from the kansasnebraska act, it was up to the people of kansas whether they wanted to have slivery or not slavery or not. Post slavery side from missouri, was almost certain that the state would be a slave state. Why not . Missouri is right next door. Strongest slavery plantations right next door. They assumed it was going to become a slave state. They were alarmed when he saw all these antislavery people coming into kansas. The pro slavery people of missouri, actually wanted to make a slave state. They didnt mind playing dirty. They were looking forward to playing dirty. So the first territorial give governor by the name of anthony reeder. First jobs was to take a consensus of the territory. First was to select a territory legislature. They had the territorial election, people from missouri, flooded across the border either scared away or so intimidated most of the native kansans, they won the election. To give you a sense of how overwhelming this was. According to the 1855 1855 census, 2378 males eligible to vote in kansas. But, 6370 voted. Now, obviously they probably missed a if few. It give you little bit more specifics here. Lawrence according to the census have 369 males eligible to vote. But 1034 voted. We talk about youve heard all kinds of things. If you dont have to be even too savvy with the news to realize theres all kinds of talk about fraudulent elections rigged elections, voter suppression. This is the real thing. Theres no doubt about this one. What happened was that the Territorial Legislature was made up of missourian. They had no intention of ever living in kansas. They lived they moved First Capital to shawnee, mission which was on the missouri border. They can come across and do business. The first thing they did was to pass one of the harshest slave codes in American History to give an example, if anyone tried to incite slave, it was punishable by death. The kansasnebraska act stated that the Territorial Legislature will be elected by the resident of the territory. Election of missourians were clearly illegal. President Franklin Pierce, who was the northerner, decided to side with the south and with the post slavery side. He declared post slavery legislature was legal. The power of the federal government was behind this illegal but legal post slavery legislature. The free state kansans, thats what they started calling themselves. You see free state all other the place here. Free state kansans they decided that they werent going to sit around and let this happen. They created their own government. They elected a legislature. They elected a governor and this also was illegal. We have two illegal Territorial Legislatures. One is backed by the federal government. Other is not backed by the federal government. They are both illegal. The president Franklin Pierce, as i said, sided with the post slavery legislature. He decided that the Free State Legislature was not only illegal but it was previous. He had leaders of this Free State Party arrested and thrown in jail for treason. The leader of the party had been the Free State Party, have been the main businessman in kansas for the immigrant aid company. His name was Charles Robinson. That name might be familiar. He was the leader of the free state movement. Charles robinson and i think six other kansans were arrested for treason. Those are interesting too. The grand jury that indicted robinson and others, they also indicted the Free State Hotel and the newspapers. How in the world can you say that a newspaper and a hotel is treason . It did. This becomes significant little bit later on. Well, to the post slavery folks in missouri, lawrence was sort of like a to be picked. Lawrence became the center of attack for these missourians. In 1855, the missourians lined up on the outskirt of lawrence ready to attack. They quickly realized that the people of lawrence were trained and armed. Missourians backed off. The walker russo war was a war i wish all wars were no bloodshed. Actually a free state man was killed on his way to lawrence. He became a martyr. Chapter of that book, that chapter in my book i called almost bloodless award. They backed off. Interesting thing about the kansas at this time, especially the free state side, was the role of women. There were two free state women Margaret Wood and lois brown. Who joined anywhere husbands to define the pro slavery forces. They took a wagon through the missouri slavery lanes to a cash of weapons and ammunition outside of lawrence. They came back through town. They provided all these goodies to their antislavery husbands. Whats interesting, these two women and other women, were equal partners to their husbands in the antislavery movement. One woman who i really sort of got attached to is Sarah Robinson the wife of Charles Robinson. In 1856 she wrote a book that was called kansas its interior and exterior life. She beautifully chronicled the life in kansas and became influential in the east. People in the east read a and recognized what was going on with the folks in lawrence kansas. She had a very Important Role in the the early history of kansas. Her husband, Charles Robinson was held for treason. She traveled to the east. She met a number of people along the way. Including abraham lincoln. She went to boston. She worked with Amos Lawrence to get her husband and rest of these captives released. She had a very Important Role. The people of lawrence recognized that they were targets as they had to defend themselves. They were successful working with Amos Lawrence and others in the east in acquiring the finest weapons of the day called sharks rifles. They shipped them to kansas and kind of interesting ways. They called them bibles. They called them books. Another person who helped raise money for this was the reverend Henry Beacher from new york. He was the lot of these were beachers bible. Someone asked him why he did this. Christian ministry. Why he raise money for these bibles. He said, one shark rifle had more power with it. Post slavery folks than 100 bibles. He said you might as well read bibles to buffaloes. Try to convince these folks that theyre wrong. Its kind of fun story. But, while Charles Robinson and others were being held in prison the pro slavery missourians attacked lawrence. This time they had the army behind them. It was called the sack of lawrence. The Free State Hotel was blown up and burned. We stayed overnight in the hotel. Which is the third iteration of the Free State Hotel. The Free State Hotel was burned. The newspapers they were not burned but they scattered through the river and scattered around. Number of houses were burned. Folks in lawrence were armed to the teeth with the fine weapons available, Amos Lawrence and Charles Robinson really warned the people of kansas to not become violent. They felt it was important for them not to become violent. Gentleman by the name of john brown, decided that the generally reproach of the antislavery folks was not working too well. He was not a resident of lawrence. He lived a number of miles south of lawrence. His son and others murdered five pro slavery settlers in 1856 near pottawatomie creek. It was called leading kansas. Pro and antislavery militias attacked each other in open warfare. One free state militia called the lawrence studs i love that name. Attacked post slavery strongholds around lawrence. They reacquired a cannon that have been confiscated from them in the sack of lawrence and but they only had a handful of cannon balls. They got the people of lawrence to go out and collect all the type from from herald of freedom thats been scattered around. Molded this type into cannon balls. Next time they attacked, cannon, here is the next edition of the herald freedom. I love that. Thats one of my favorite things from the whole story. The violence never stopped in 1856 when a new governor became the territorial governor. He made it clear he was not going to take sides and be pro slave and not going to be free state and so, he made it clear. He put his money where his mouth was. A missourians were ready to attack lawrence again for the third time. They sent the army down overnight. They stopped the third attack on lawrence. But also as the soldiers were marching back to lee compton which was the territory capital. Lawrence stubs coming back from attack on post slavery stronghold. He arrested them as well. He made it clear he wasnt going to side with the pro slavery or antislavery sides. In 1857, things begin to change. There was a new election for a Territorial Legislature. This time, the missourians didnt cross the border. Abolitions finally won an election fair and square. The new free state Territorial Legislature tore down and built up new laws for kansas. He rescind all the post slavery laws. Before they became the Territorial Legislature the post schaeferry legislature called for Constitutional Convention and wrote a constitution called the lee compton constitution. This gets confusing. The Free State Legislature had written a constitution in 1856. They sent it to congress. Constitution for the state of kansas. It didnt pass congress. It didnt have much of chance of passing. The lee compton constitution was the second constitution that was prepared by the post slavery side. It it was sent to congress. They had a vote in kansas. The antislavery folks boycotted the election. It won but by a tiny fraction of residents in kansas. The new president at the time james buchanan, wanted kansans to be admitted as a slave state. Congress refused to pass it. Sent it back to kansas for another vote. Kansans voted that one down. Now the pro slavery folks are out of the picture in kansas. New legislature actually the new Territorial Legislature wrote two new constitutions. Are you keeping track . Four actually had a chance to passing. Because the Constitution Convention for the fourth one, had a very balanced membership on the committee to write the constitution. It went to congress. It had no chance of passing because of the congress was to horribly divided. How about the term dysfunctional. They couldnt pass any significant legislation. As soon as the south succeeded and the Congress People from the south left with their states, now there was enough votes for kansas to be admitted. Kansas was admitted to union on the eve of civil war. When the civil war started there was there really was no state in the country probably more prepared for the civil war than kansas. Theyve been through all this in kansas. Was interesting is that kansas provided more soldiers per capita and had more casualties per capita than any other northern state. It was a really they were just admitted. They decided to play their part. Whats interesting about lawrence i think one of the things i find fascinating not only was a stronghold of the free party and abolitions in kansas. It was welcoming to africanamericans. Before the civil war, fugitives, primarily from missouri would come to lawrence. They knew they had a chance to be rescued if they could find their way to lawrence. Lot of free africanamericans also came to lawrence. Whats interesting is that there are some folks in lawrence had a real they were really conflicted with this issue of fugitive slaves. All they knew was slavery was wrong. They knew to do something to end slavery. They were very conflicted they knew they were breaking the law. They knew they would be thrown in jail if they were caught trying to harbor a slave. One person in particular, the minister of the Congregational Church richard cordley. He wrote two histories of lawrence. They are wonderful histories. He wrote in one of his books that when he was a student at andover seminary, fugitive slave law was passed. When he saw t he decided it was the sum of all billnies. He would do to help slaves. He was confronted with the chance to put his money where his mouth was. He said its easy to talk bravely from a thousand mile away. Its difficult to make a decision about this when you have the opportunity. One of his parishioners came to him and asked if he and his wife would keep escaped slave woman by the name of lizzy in their house. He said when opportunity presented it she said there was only one thing to do. He and his wife kept lizzy in their house for a period of time until she was able to sneak her into canada. Some of the people were conflicted. Some of them had no problem at all trying to help slaves escape. Theres one of my favorite people in this story was man by the name of dr. John doy. He was a hydro pathic there. If you translate that, it probably means quack. [laughter] anyway, one of the things he did, he was close associate of john brown. He actually would go into missouri to help not only help slaves escape, he go in and steal them from owners in missouri. He wrote an autobiography, you can get it online. Its kind of cool. Actually theres a youtube, the story ill get to. Theres a youtube of him that you can pull up easily. If i can do it, you can do it. In 1859, this is really interesting, the people of lawrence asked him if he would help 12 free blacks leave lawrence and go to canada. He helped i dont know how many dozen slaves escape, fugitive slaves. Now hes being asked to take free africanamericans out of lawrence. He agrees to do it. He gets few miles out. Hes arrested by missourians. This is kind of like im sure you heard about al capone. He was arrested arrested for income tax evasion. Hes trying to help free blacks. The reason theyre doing this, slave catchers will come into lawrence and kidnap free blacks or slaves. He gets 12 miles out of town. Hes arrested. He is taken to missouri. Hes tried. He is convictioned to five years of hard labor. One really interesting stories is 10 men from lawrence went to where he was being held. They broke him out of jail. They took him back to lawrence and theres a wonderful picture up there. Immortal ten. Taking him back to lawrence where he was a hero. Well, what happened during the civil war was that kansas, there were gorillas in kansas called the jay hawkers. If you dont know if you never heard the word jay hawk, theres something wrong here. But the jay hawkers were on the union side. Union army tried to control them without much luck. But they tried to control him. On the other side, the confederate side, gorillas were actually not only legal but encouraged by the federal government. In 1862, the confederate government passed the partisan ranger act of 1962. What it said was that gorillas not only will be legal but they can be paid by the government. They can have their officers. One young man by the name the William Clark quantro. Became a gorilla leader. I have a little fun calling him gorilla. To me he was really a thug. By the time he finished, he had some of the nastiest people you can imagine in his gorilla band. Buddy Bill Anderson was part of the band. Toward the end, people who around him every time he was beginning to think of killing people. He would start foaming at the mouth. Frank james and later his kid brother, jesse james were part of this whole thing. Everything came to a head in august 1863ly. You know all about that. You heard the names of the people that were killed in quantros raid on lawrence in 1863. There were about 400 gorillas that took part in the raid. They were directed to kill every man and boy tall enough to hold a gun. As you know about 200 were killed. There are some were not sure about. 200 were killed. Quantros raid was gruesome. The descriptions of some of the killings will make you sick. I will not read those. They were also, a number of remarkable escapes. One africanamerican man, he knew that he was probably a target. He took off and started running. Ran for four miles to the walker russo river. Climbed up a tree. Thought he was safe. Only to realize couple of hours later, when he left, they marched under the tree. He thought he was safe. Another story i think thats interesting, the night before the raid, gentleman by the name of mr. Winchell was in town. He ran into the house of the episcopal minister. The minister wife helped him shave off his beard. When the men came in, they said please dont bother poor aunt bessie. We dont know how much longer shell be with us. He was saved. Another one, reverend fisher. One of the major targets of quantro were ministers. Reverend fisher was in his house. They knew they were in his house. They decided they were going to kill him. They couldnt find him. They set the house on fire. Well, reverend fishers wife helped him crawl out of the cellar of the basement. She covered him with rugs and furniture. All the house was burning and he was saved. There was some remarkable saves as well. Before quantros raid. This is hard to do the transition. It makes sense but it doesnt. The legislature in kansas made the decision that the university of kansas would be in lawrence. Part of the deal was that they had to come up with 15,000 to the state legislature for that to happen. In order to get the university in their town, Josiah Miller who was editor one of the first newspapers in town, he bribed the state legislators. Gave each 5 to vote for lawrence. When the vote came, he realized he missed two. He snuck over he didnt have enough he gave them four. They voted for lawrence to have this state university. Of course, with quantros raid, coming up with 15,000 was a big deal. Every penny they had, every energy they had was going towards rebuilding their town. They didnt have that. Charles robinson contacted our friend Amos Lawrence, and asked him if he would contribute 15,000 so they could have the university. He already contributed im not good at math looks like he gave about 50,000 to lawrence and to kansas. Thats in 1850 money. He gave them 10,000. They were able to come up with the rest of the money to have the university of kansas located in lawrence. Whats interesting is i read several things that said that lawrence, his name was attached to the town he never came here. He did. In 1884, Amos Lawrence his wife and daughter and the mayor of boston came to kansas and to lawrence. They rolled out the red carpet. They had all kinds of things planned for them. Lawrence was a very private man. He really did not like the lime light. After two or three days, he didnt want to be here. Didnt want to take it in. He got back on the train and went back to boston. He did visit here. That is i think this is amazing. Lawrence money with the railroad, there were two railroads that came through lawrence. Lawrence recovered quickly and successfully with all of these economic features and with the university. It became a thriving town after quantros raid. In my mind, history done have a whole lot of value unless it can inform the present. I think kansas really provide the wonderful opportunity for us to do that. American politicians today talked about voter fraud, voter suppression. But the territorial election in kansas in 1855 there is no question that this was prime example of voter fraud. I think the most critical piece for democratic republic to function properly is for the participation of the populace in selecting its representatives anything that undermines that process compromises the entire system. I think thats one lesson that we learned that voter fraud did not work. This past week, we came to realize that hatred, bigotry racism faced by the people of lawrence, over 150 years ago has reared its ugly face in charlottesville, virginia. The people of lawrence and kansas refuse tolerate bigotry and racism in 1850s and 1960s. Thats another lesson that we have. The people willing to give their lives to eradicate hatred and bigot in 1850s. The omegas important the most important lesson, Many Americans passionate about ending slavery people like Amos Lawrence, poured a portion of his money to ensure launches become a free state. To make kansas a free state. Finally, americans in the north were willing to fight the civil war to preserve the union and to End Institution of slavery. Maybe we can learn from your example and recognize that eradicateing evil benefits all. Thank you. [applause] im very happy to take questions. You mentioned that [indiscernible] not by the north but by the south. He was captain in the Confederate Army. 3 he was very upset. He thought he was so cool. He traveled to richmond and demanded that he be made a colonel. They begin to find out what blood thirsty he was. They didnt give them that title. They could have the title of colonel as gorilla chief. Just to keep it straight, confederates recognized in some ways, i look at this as domestic terrorism. Its sanctioned by the government. They are being paid by the government. They are recognized by the government. On north, they tried to control the jay hawkers. Had some success but they were not encouraged to go on their own as gorillas. They tried to control them with varying degrees of success. Mostly unsuccessful. Ill try to repeat the question. I would like to know if in your study the name of james mon row. I dont recall that name. You look at the index in my book, there are lot of names. I dont recall. Sorry. [indiscernible] im sorry. I did remember that. I think middle name, i didnt catch it. Was it the first colored kansan. I do remember that. Im sorry. I cant remember names sorry. Fantastic. The leader of the first kansas regimen colored was uncle. Wonderful. Im particular interested in your perspective as a historian related to election today. With regards to the confederate monument. Im sorry to laugh. We were just talking before. I bet the first question i get [laughter] particularly, is it your viewpoint that we should leave those up as a reminder of our past . Should they be removed . If they should be removed what is the criteria for deciding which monuments and statues should be removed . Thats a good question. It supposed to be yes or no though. To me its a complicated issue. Ive been thinking. It. For a while. I have been thinking of it in the context of the confederate flag. The confederate battle flag. St. Andrews, battle flag. To me it has no place at all in our country. I dont care what anybody says. The reason is essentially disappeared from the public entirely. Until civil rights movement. The confederate battle flag became the symbol of the anticivil rights movement. It should be done away with and thats my feeling about that. About confederate monuments. My personal view is that they should not be taken down. The theyre part of our culture. Like it or not. Theyre part of our curl. What i would like to see what richmond proposed early on. They sort of changed the view of this. Leave the monuments in place. Put interpretive markers there to interpret what happened. We did that in the park service. There was a monument in Harpers Ferry to hayward shepard. He was a free black man. First person killed in the john brown raid. Daughters of confederacy pet put them out. He was uncle tom. The park didnt know what to do with it. They bill a wood. Box. The sons and daughters of confederacy were upset because they putted wood box around it. Naacp was upset because they didnt put it in the river. That seems to work well. I think for the most part thats what i would do with confederate common monuments. There were exceptions. I just saw other day that lexington, kentucky, has confederate monuments but they are on the site of a former slave market. They did it for a reason. There was good reason why we did that. I think they should be removed. Ed. That is now sacred ground that does not deserve to have a confederate monument. They should be taken away. Theres some particularly in my mind egregious individuals that should not have monuments. I would see them gone. Like Nathan Bedford forest. He murdered hundreds of africanamerican soldiers who had surrendered at fort pillow. He became the Founding Member of the klu klux klan. There are more monuments to Nathan Bedford forest in tennessee than all of the president s all three president s from tennessee combined. In my mind, you take away all the Nathan Bedford forest monuments thats fine. Robert e. Lee didnt want monuments. He didnt think it was appropriate to build monuments after the civil war. Thats what he said. Its complicated. I got to tell you, my views are sort of evolving. You hope others are too. Thats my take on that. John brown what did he do to help kansas . He didnt do much to help kansas to be honest. By killing the pro slavery people in pottawatomie creek, he starred bleeding kansas. He came back later and actually worked with my buddy john doy to go steal slaves in missouri. He came back and did that. In my mind, he was more of a detriment than he was a help. Whats interesting is that he had an interesting relationship with Amos Lawrence. He had sold wool to Amos Lawrence years this whole story of kansas. Then when he went to kansas, he went to see his buddy Amos Lawrence. Who was essentially wrote letter of introduction. He came back again not long before he went to harper ferry and asked lawrence to help him with his project. Lawrence refused. He said, i given lot of money to kansas, to this issue already. Which he had. When john brown asked him if he would take care of his family, if anything happen to him lawrence agreed to do that. He did. He took care of his family. He wrote a letter to the governor of virginia hoping that they would give him a fair trial. Which they did. There were more connections. It doesnt really theres not a whole lot with the story. He triggered things but then kind of left. Civil war started there. He looked at mr. Brown as [indiscernible] theres so much debate over john brown. Was he completely insane or zealot. I dont know. I have no idea. Anyone else . [indiscernible] part of the deal was to parks and ranger act. They were supposed to if they were requested by the confederate commanders join up, that was supposed to be their role. They could call on them. Theoretically this they were supposed to do, like these scouts. They were supposed to be available when called upon. Sometimes they were. Quantros folks were called upon. Bloody Bill Anderson went his own way. I read about him. I go my goodness. In my book, i have a picture of him. He looks like a this hero. They have another picture hes dead. [indiscernible] i can go on forever about quantro he was a school teacher. He was a school teacher. Apparently a real smart guy. Whats interesting later after he was dead, people said he was a real scoundrel. Someone said he was nasty boy he would pull the wings off flies. People actually knew him, no, he was studious. He would have never in a million years guess what he was like later. When he was a teenager, he taught school. Went to indiana and illinois teach school. His father died when he was young. He was sort of the breadwinner. He was from ohio originally. He went back to his home in ohio and went to kansas with a group of folks from his town. They settled there. The folks in this group from the town called dover canal. I think thats the name of the town. Noticed things were missing. They eventually caught him red handed stealing things from this group. They told him to leave. He did leave. He taught school in kansas also. Then he went west. Went to pipes peek. He came back to lawrence. He lived in lawrence under the name of William Clark i think. I cant remember names. William clark. Thats when he really turned into what he became later. He became a horse thief. He was also a slave stealer. He would go to missouri and steal slaves and come back and then take the slaves back to missouri to get the reward for capturing the slaves. At one point, he and five quakers went on a mission to try to capture slaves at a big plantation. They went there. He said when they arrived, he said im going to go scout out the situation so we can go do our deal tonight. What he did he went and found the son of the slave owner. These five quakers are going to attack. Get someone to counter attack. They did. He stayed how the picture. He stayed out the picture. They killed one quaker. Two of them escaped back to lawrence. Two of them were injured. He went out with the son of the slave owner, shot the two quakers who left. That really was sort of the turning point in his life. He joined the Confederate Army and became you get a sense he wasnt a really nice guy. He really wasnt. After the raid in lawrence, he and his band went down to texas arkansas area. The army Confederate Army was going disgusted with these gorillas. They didnt really like them much. They reorganized quantro was voted out as a leader. He was underground for a while. Eventually he went to kentucky. Took his band to kentucky. He called himself William Clark. He had them dressed in union uniform instead of the missouri calvary. They caught on to him. Eventually he was shot. Whats interesting, he was shot after the war was over. He was shot in the back. He lingered for a couple of days. The report is he became a very devout catholic just before he died. He was buried. It gets bizarre. He was buried in lexington kentucky. Friend of his took some of the bones to dover where he was from. Someone kept his head. Then about 15 years ago, the sons of confederate veterans took some of the bones and buried them in missouri. If you want to try everything that belongs to William Clark be my guest. He was a pretty nasty person. Anything else . [applause] we have facebook question from peter. He said are there any Historical Resources on people who died in detroit . You can be featured. Join the conversation on facebook at facebook. Com cspan history. And on twitter cspan history.
