On 24 May 1856, Brown and his sons killed five people in Kansas who wanted slavery to be legal. They dragged the people out of their homes and killed them with swords. This came to be known as the Pottawatomie massacre.[2] More violent things happened after this. This was the beginning of the period in the Kansas Territory known as Bleeding Kansas.[3] Before leaving Kansas, Brown and his followers were attacked at the Battle of Osawatomie on August 30, 1856.[4] His son Frederick was killed there.
