John Brown (1800-1859) was convicted of treason and hanged six weeks after his failed raid on a federal arsenal.
John Brown was a failed farmer and a failed businessman. His raid on Harper's Ferry, and possibly others of his acts of domestic terrorism, were finances by a group of wealthy Abolitionists known as the Secret Six.
John browns goal was to free as many slaves as possible. He tried to do this by killing slave owners and there families and telling and helping slaves to run away. He also attacked Harper's ferry...
A group called the Secret Six financed John Brown and many of his "abolitionist campains". Two of the members were Julia Ward Howe and her husband, just to let those who think "The Battle of the Hymn of the Republic" a glorius song. All 7 were evil.
