Description
Article on the aftermath of Quantrill's Raid on the town of Lawrence, Kansas and its residents. Following the August 21, 1863 attack in which almost 200 men and boys were killed, surviors of the raid struggled to put their homes, businesses, and lives back together. The author details rebuilding efforts and the later campaign for raid claims through a number of individuals, focusing particularly on dry goods store owner Fred W. Read. The Kansas legislature finally approved a bill for raid claims in 1887, but at only a fraction of their original amounts.
