[Non-Sequitur]

I have wondered but not found out whom the "secret six" were that funded and provisioned John Brown? Do you have any knowledge of who they were?

The Secret Six aren't very secret. They were Thomas Wentworth Higginson, George Luther Stearns, Gerrit Smith, Samuel Howe, Franklin Sanborn, and Theodore Parker. All wealthy abolitionists. Samuel Howe was married to Julia Ward Howe.

Thanks, Don't know how that escaped me all this time, or how they escaped the hangman's noose.
