Abolitionism in Missouri

I found two articles from two newspapers that seem to talk about the same group of abolitionists…

… from the “Tri-Weekly Messenger, 16 Feb 1856, Sat · Page 2”

Abolitionists are gathering equipment and arms to travel to Kansas to fight

And 4 months later in the “Glasgow Weekly Times 26 Jun 1856, Thu · Pg 2”

800 Abolitionists make it to Kansas…
