- Hundreds of copies of a provisional constitution were found among John Brown's papers after his 1859 raid on Harper's Ferry, Virginia. It called for a new state in the Appalachian Mountains, a sort of West Virginia, populated by escaped slaves from plantations, which were at lower altitudes. It was introduced into evidence at his trial as evidence of sedition. John Brown also wrote, at about the same time, a little-known Declaration of Liberty, inspired by the U.S. Declaration of Independence. (en)
- La Provisional Constitution rédigée par l'abolitionniste américain John Brown, en forme longue Provisional Constitution and Ordinances for the People of the United States, est une constitution adoptée lors de la convention de Chatham, une convention secrète de ses partisans, ainsi que d'anciens esclaves de son pays, réunie le 8 mai 1858 à Chatham, en Ontario. Elle prévoit un nouveau gouvernement coexistant à côté du gouvernement fédéral et interdisant formellement l'esclavage aux États-Unis. (fr)
