Stop by the Torrington Library to see our collection of John Brown letters and artifacts!

[TheCivilWarDoc @TheCivilWarDoc1]

John Brown was born #OTD in 1800 in Torrington, Conn. Brown was a militant abolitionist and rose to national prominence during Bleeding Kansas in the 1850s. He led a raid at Harper's Ferry, Virginia in 1859 in hopes of inciting a slave revolt that would destroy slavery itself.
