I know he was anti-slavery. He decided to arm slaves with weapons but was defeated within hours of his plan. What else could be said for him? There's not much information and I can't use wiki for that paper >.<

Age: 20 Posts: 2,463 Rep Power: 11 | "During "Bleeding Kansas", murder, mayhem, destruction and psychological warfare became a code of conduct in Eastern Kansas and Western Missouri. Well-known examples of this violence include the massacre in May 1856 at Pottawatomie Creek where John Brown and his sons killed five pro-slavery advocates."

I'd say Wiki Pottawatomie Creek looking for the massacre. | |

Even Nancy has to pay the bills. xD
But seriously. Is it a new mystery sort of novel? Like, set after the timeline of the original books? | |

Everyone is reading a Nancy Drew so I expect half the class or more to be Investigators or a Lawyer. But she did say unique, so i was thinking of maybe along the lines of Forensic Scientist or Real estate Broker. I honestly don't know. | |
