West Virginia State Archives The Situation On October 16, 1859, a group of raiders led by John Brown attacked the United States Armory at Harpers Ferry, (West) Virginia. After a day of fighting with the local militia, John Brown and his men took refuge in a building that housed the armory’s fire engines. On October 18, 1859, U.S. Marines under the leadership of Colonel Robert E. Lee stormed the engine house where the raiders were hiding and took them into custody. West Virginia State Archives

The Commonwealth of Virginia v. John Brown and his men Harper’s Weekly, November 12, 1859 The trial of John Brown began on October 27, 1859. Four days later, on October 31, the jury found Brown guilty of treason against the Commonwealth of Virginia, inciting slaves to rebel and murder. He was sentenced to hang on December 2, 1859. The other men captured in the raid were also put on trial and faced a similar fate.

The Hanging of John Brown The New York Illustrated News, December 10,1859 On December 2, 1859, under heavy military guard John Brown was hanged on the Hunter Farm outside of Charles Town, (West) Virginia

John Brown’s Body The New York illustrated News, December 17, 1859 John Brown’s Raid was a failed attempt to incite a slave rebellion. While the raid itself failed, the response of northern abolitionists and slave owners in the South increased tension between the two regions which pushed the United States ever closer to a civil war.
