AN OLD "BEECHER BIBLE"
A CURIOUS BIT OF EARLY KANSAS HISTORY.


From The Kansas City Journal
At Lecompton the other day a lad padding
around In the shallow waters of the Kaw found a
Sharp rifle OF the ancient pattern Of fifty years ago
er's Bibles" the name given by the early settlers
to this weapon. and the suggestion recalls a curl
Gus bit OF early day history. When the nrSt emf
grants sent out by tho New-England Aid and other
societies North found their settlements beset
by bands OF prO-slaveTy men from Missouri they
called upon their Eastern friends for arms with
which 10 defend themselves, and many shipments
OF Sharp's rifles We're made TO them from both
Boston and New-York. But all goods shipped to
Kansas had to come up the Missouri River and
through the enemy's country" and the Mis-
sourians had a habit OF Confscating such weapons
as they found So the rifles were shipped as some
thing else In packages TO deceive For example In
1S55 Amos Lawrence wrote from Boston 10 his
agent at Hartford. Conn:
"ReOuest Mr. Palmer to have ten Sharps rifles
Dacked in casks like hardware, and TO retail them
I will nav IL either with my note 1T per cent IN
terest In cash . r ... - :.
And these rifles were shipped TO Lawrence and
cot "a fsIy through as did others packed in a way
10 deceive II was charged that Henry Ward
ReaCher had sent box of the rifles marked
''Ribles and when approached by New ork
POST reporter. ne admitted II 10 De 1acI
bsIisve he said that the Sharp rifle Is truly a
moral agency and there Is more moral power IN
