John Brown's body lies a-mold'ring in the grave
John Brown's body lies a-mold'ring in the grave
His soul goes marching on
He captured Harper's Ferry with his nineteen men so true.
He frightened old Virginia till she trembled through and through
They hung him for a traitor, themselves the traitor crew
His soul is marching on.

Brown had left Kansas in 1859 to go to a place he rented
near Harper's ferry. He used it to recruit others sympathetic
to his cause, and they planned the first skirmish of the
civil war. Oct.16 of that year, 20 men captured the poorly
guarded arsenal at Harper's Ferry Virginia, now West Virginia,
without firing a shot. They held it for only 1 day.
detachment of 80 US marines, led by Col. Robert E. Lee,
battered down the door and recaptured the arsenal.
Ten of Brown's men, including two of his sons, were killed;
five escaped and five were captured, including John Brown.
Another officer from Virginia, Robert A. Caskie, a close
friend of Robert E. Lee was placed in charge of the prisoners.
Caskie told Brown, "Sir, you have very few friends here.
I know you will ask nothing incompatible with my duties.
I would like to be of service to you and supply you with
anything you need except your liberty."
Governor Wise of VA sent Caskie to New York to secure Brown's
wife for the court martial. It was an honor for Captain Caskie
to be chosen for this difficult mission. He informed Mrs. Brown
that there was nothing to worry about. There had been no fatalities
to civilians or US soldiers at the attack. He was very wrong
because on Dec. 2, 1859, they hanged John Brown and four
of his men. His dignified conduct and the sincerity of his
calm defense during the trial won him sympathy in the North
and led him to be regarded as a martyr. A song was written
about him and it became a popular marching song for the
Union Army.

John Brown could not conceivably have been termed a terrorist
by his contemporaries, as the term in nineteenth century
usage generally referred to actions committed by a government
against its people, on the model of the Revolutionary Terror
in the France of the 1790s, and it was still used in this sense
by the Russian Bolsheviks of the 1920s. Moreover, his goal
was that of the guerrilla or partisan commander rather
than the terrorist, as he sought a general rising rather
than the series of pinpricks that so often denote a
terrorist war, the "war of the flea".
