Letter, John Vansickle to Dear SirJohn Vansickle wrote from Bourbon County responding to his recipient's previous letter. Vansickle seemed hopeful, as he saw there was a "prospect of peace" in his part of the country, and his business and crops were successful. He also commented on James Montgomery and John Brown, criticizing that they "free more horses than negros," calling them scoundrels and warning his recipient to "never vindicate thare [their] cause." Vansickle added that he would assist the recipient in coming to Kansas Territory.1859-02-04Webb, Thomas H. (Hopkins)1801-1866CreatorcreThis item was part of Territorial Kansas Online (TKO# 101831).
