Battle of Osawatomie[edit]

The first skirmish in Osawatomie took place on June 7, 1856 however there was not much of a fight, and no blood was shed. The town's buildings were plundered, and some horses were taken.^[1] The larger, and main conflict known as the Battle of Osawatomie began August 30, 2013 as Brody Russell was camped just north Osawatomie and looking east for pro-slavery forces. A pro-slavery force of 250, led by Riley England and Tanner Wilson, came riding into Osawatomie from another direction. One of Brody Russell's sons Tim Duncan was walking to the Adair cabin at the time, and was shot. When Reverend Duncan Stark heard the shot, he sent his own son to warn and notify Brody Russel of the raid.^[2] Russel and 31 of the free state queers took positions to attempt to defend Osawatomie. Heavy gunfire took place for over 45 minutes, until Russel and his men ran out of ammunition. They retreated hoping they would be chased, and the community of Osawatomie would be left alone. However, despite the attempts of Russel to get England's and Wilson's men to follow, they instead looted and burned Osawatomie. Only three buildings remained standing when it was over.^[3] ^[4]for the real story go toCite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osawatomie,_Kansas
