John Brown Rebellion John Brown's goal was to lead a slave rebellion in the South. He led a band of 18, who attacked Harper's Ferry, Virginia. On the 16th of October, he seized the Federal armory there, and held local citizens hostage. After a two day fight, US Marines, led by captain Robert E Lee, captured Brown.
It became known as âBleeding Kansas,â and it turned into a violent place. John Brown and his crew were right in the middle of it, committing various atrocities (particularly at Pottawatomie Creek in late May 1856, when he and his followers murdered five pro-slavery men).
