One of the most interesting battles that would later lead to one of the bloodiest wars. Great read.

the FIRST MARTYR to dixie liberty was Heywood Shepard, a "freeman of colour", who was employed as an arsenal armed guard by the Commonwealth of Virginia. (NOTE: some sources spell his name Haywood Sheppard, BTW.)
john brown MURDERED him without warning, shortly after brown & his pack of criminals arrived on the scene.
FYI, Shepard was memorialized with a monument at Harper's Ferry in 1935 by the SCV & UDC; he was the first NON-white person to be so honored.
unless things have changed in the last few days, the monument was covered up with a black plywood box (by the NPS), so that "nobody would be offended or made uncomfortable by the facts & circumstances of his demise."
the more things change, the more the PC-types make me GAG.

Thanks for the ping.
John Brown had the moral high ground regarding slavery but did commit acts of murder in Kansas so I think he got what he deserved. His way of going about it wasn't the answer.
