drawn into the vortex. by a hasty ILL
considered decision. He was tired still
from his swift journey across the
desert from Fort Union, and now
faced another three days ride. Then
what? A headstrong girl to be con-
WINGED of danger, and controlled. The
longer he thought about it all, the
more intensely disagreeable the task
appeared, yet the clearer did he ap-
p~reciate its necessity. He chafed at

The real truth was that Hamlin
comprehended much more fully than

MATCHING OF BROWNS PLOT
Old Frame House stIll Stands Whsre
the Plan to Raid Harper's Ferry
Was First Broached.

At No. 1856 Congress street east, De-
troit. Mich. Just beyond st. Antoine
street. 10 q modest two-story frame
house. There II nothing in its outward
appearance to distinguish it from
others in the locality. OF tho thou
sands who daily traverse that thor
oughfare few cast ever a glance In it,
direction. They know nothing Of what
happened there.
Every schoolboy knows Of John
Brown and the spectacular raid he led
upon Harper's Ferry. The affair was
one Of the stirring events preceding
the long warfare In behalf Of a united
country. John Brown was eulog1zed
In song and story.
All this ia familiar to every Detroit
er, yet few know that in this city were
formulated the plans which resulted
In this raid, and that the campaign
vas outlined in an upper room OF the
little frame house In Congress street.
1t vas back in 1859 that Detroit re-
ceived a visit from John Brown. He
was hen famous the country over az
the moving spirit in the League OF
Gileadites, a body sworn to stand to
gether in their labor Of freeing slaves.
His work in Kansas as a leader
against the border rufians was fresh
In mind, as were the murder OF i've
~pro-slavery men at Pottawatomie. the
capture of General Pate at Black Jack
and the defense of Ossawatomie. So
when Brown Arrived in Detroit, March
20 1QEO opcorononioH hu fun mon and
conveying a party Of 10 negro refugees
bound for Canada via the under
ground railway" it was a great occa'
sion for the abolitionists, with whom
Detroit teemed.
Either through coincidence or as
the result of a prearranged plan,
Frederick Douglass, a noted negro ora
tor, arrived in Detroit the same day
as Brown, addressing a meeting
that evening.
After the meeting Brown, Douglass,
George de Baptiste, DR.. J. Ferguson,
William Webb and others went to the
Webb home at Nc. 1876 Congress street,
where a meeting was held.
Here, behind closed doors and with
every man present sworn to secrecy,
Brown divulged his plan to raid the ar
senal at Harper's Ferry. That the sug-
gestion met with the approval of a ma
jority of those present Is certain.
It was well toward daybreak when
the meeting broke up, and the partici-
pants scattered to their homes. Brown
snatched a few hours sleep, and with
his followers left Detroit. The next
the public heard from him was
when, with a handful of followers, he
attacked the arsenal at Harper's Fer
ry. How he was captured after being
seriously wounded, with two dead sons
at his side, tried, convicted and
hanged is a matter of common knowl
edge.
Just what took place in the house
has never been set forth save in a
fragmentary There r diff.
ferences of opinion as to the influence
this raid exerted upon subsequent
happenings. But whatever the conclu.
sions, the fact remains hat Detroit
bears the distinction of having been
the place where the plan received til
first impetus.

tism contrary to law, just as he was
about to bury an unconscious subject
to demonstrate that the latter could
be kept in a hynotic state for forty
eight hours.
The grave had been dug in D'Auden-
riand's back yard and an elaborate
coffin had been sem there from an un-

crowd of neighbors had seen the hyp-

him in the coffin. The hypnotist was
