About: John Brown's raiders

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

On Sunday night, October 16, 1859, the abolitionist John Brown led a motley band of 22 in a raid on the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia (since 1863, West Virginia). Most were much younger than him, and varied dramatically in social class and education. "It would be hard to find again such a strange party as that which upheld John Brown in his daring expedition." All but 5, who successfully escaped north, were either killed during the raid, or captured, tried, and executed.
