      Less Robin Hood. More John Brown.

      I, John Brown, am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood. I had, as I now think vainly, flattered myself that without very much bloodshed it might be done.

      ~ Charlestown, Virginia Dec 2, 1859
