He did two raids. One when he and his sons raided Lawrence, Kansas where they killed people before the vote for/against slavery. The newspapers of the time ran headlines of "Bleeding Kansas." The second raid was Harbers Ferry where Brown and his sons took the army depot. His sons were killed and he was hung. Interesting facts about that day. There was a combination of people there that would figure in the civil war. Robert E Lee was the officer in charge, Grant was also one of the officers, and John Wilkes Booth was enlisted in one of the units there.
