That was Nat Turner's slave rebellion on 21 and 22 August of 1831 which resulted in the death of 55 white people. About 100 African-American slaves were killed in the aftermath and retaliation. Turner avoided capture until 30 October and he was tried, convicted and sentenced to death by hanging on 11 November in Jerusalem, Virginia.
