Happy anniversary to raid at Harpers ferry, and the battle cry of hero John Brown!
“He captured Harper’s Ferry, with his nineteen men so few, And frightened "Old Virginny" till she trembled thru and thru; They hung him for a traitor, themselves the traitor crew, But his soul is marching on.”
William W. Patton
"John Brown wears a hangman’s noose for a necktie up in Heaven. I asked him about it and he said, ‘Where’s yours? Where’s yours?’
His eyes were glowing like coins."
-Kurt Vonnegut
