Book excerpt: James Lane left a lasting impression on Kansas and American politics of the 1850s and 1860s. As a partisan during the violent years of Bleeding Kansas before the American Civil War, he was an ardent opponent of slavery and a proponent of Kansas statehood as a free state. He was one of the first senators from Kansas.Passionate, fiery, and dedicated to causes, when war came, Lane served the Union cause as a general. He raised the Kansas Brigade of volunteers, which was disbanded after Lane was severely criticized for the sacking of the town of Osceola. This raid became novelized in a story that formed the basis of the movie, "The Outlaw Josey Wales."In 1862, U.S. Senator Lane recruited the 1st Regiment Kansas Volunteer Infantry (Colored). William Quantrill's Raiders made a raid on pro-Union Lawrence, Kansas with the intention of capturing or killing Lane. He escaped through his cornfield.After fighting in the Mexican War, the Civil War, and the battles in Kansas, Lane's controversial life came to a sad end when he committed suicide in 1866. This story of his life is told by his friend, John Speer.

The scouts, led by a proslavery preacher named White, shot my son dead in the road, while he--as I have since ascertained--supposed them to be friendly. At the same time they butchered Mr. Garrison, and badly mangled one of the young men from Lawrence, who came with my son, leaving him for dead. This was not far from sunrise. I had stopped during the night about two and one half miles from them, and nearly one mile from Osawatomie. I had no organized force, but only some twelve or fifteen new recruits, who were ordered to leave their preparations for breakfast and follow me into the town, as soon as this news was brought to me. As I had no means of learning correctly the force of the enemy, I placed twelve of the recruits in a log-house, hoping we might be able to defend the town. I then gathered some fifteen more men together, whom we armed with guns; and we started in the direction of the enemy. After going a few rods we could see them approaching the town in line of battle, about half a mile off, upon a hill west of the village. I then gave up all idea of doing more than to annoy, from the timber near the town, into which we were all retreated, and which was filled with a thick growth of underbrush; but I had no time to recall the twelve men in the loghouse, and so lost their assistance in the fight. At the point above named I met with Captain Cline, a very active young man, who had with him some twelve or fifteen mounted men, and persuaded him to go with us into the timber, on the southern shore of the Osage, or Marais des Cygnes, a little to the northwest from the village. Here the men, numbering not more than thirty in all, were directed to scatter and secrete themselves as well as they could, and await the approach of...

INTERFERENCE WANTED. sonal quarrel, it is private property. You require rest and peace, and I respectfully demand that there may be no interference on the part of my friends. He has assaulted me, not for individual action, for I have never seen him, but for official action, and as a representative elect of that great and noble party whom he and his masters have sought to enslave, and in the spirit of that party, as an humble member of it, I hurl back his allegations, and bid him and his masters defiance. J. H. Lank. The report of the military board referred to is signed: J. H. Lane, President; A. D. Richardson, Assistant Adjutant General; J. G. Cleveland, Samuel Jameson, Geo. S. Hillyer, Samuel Walker, Brigadier Generals; J. Fin Hill, Inspector General; Hiram Housel, Com. General; and S. B. Prentiss, Surgeon General. We do not propose to go into an investigation of the allegations of Lane as to the homicide with which he charges him; but if Lane was mistaken in his characteristics, James Buchanan and Jefferson Davis were also mistaken in the selection of the man for their purposes. If Lane was guilty of any conduct in his official position unwarranted by the organic act, Denver had ready access to a willing court, for a writ of quo warranto, and had no excuse for infringing upon judicial powers. The President knew that he had the reputation of a fighting man, and "acknowledged the code," and selected him for these qualities. The legislature which selected Lane knew alike the caliber of their man, and the man he had to confront. It was war, not peace; and had been war from the very outset of the attempt to force acts of usurpation upon the people. CHAPTER XIII. THE LEAVENWORTH CONSTITUTION. The situation in Kansas when Gov. John...
