We find that Brown was in Chicago during the last week of October, but did not reach Boston until early in January. Mr. Stearns had heard of the Pottawatomie affair, but he never so long as he lived was aware of John Brown s connection with it. In his testi mony before the Harper s Ferry committee he * Sanborn s John Brown, p. 330. 132 GEORGE LUTHER STEARNS said: " Early in January, 1857, John Brown, of whom I had heard but had not seen, came to Bos ton and was introduced to me by one of our Ka...n sas agents; and after repeated conferences with him, being strongly impressed with his sagacity, courage, and strong integrity, I, through a vote of our committee, made him our agent to receive and hold these arms and the ammunition for the defence of Kansas, appropriating $500 to pay his expenses. " Mr. Stearns invited Captain Brown to take din ner with him the second Sunday in January, 1857, so that they might talk over Kansas affairs at their leisure; and at the table he was asked to give an account of the fight at Black Jack, which he did, with a grim kind of humor very becoming to him.
