The Lincoln Flag
Kansas was admitted to the Union as a free state on January 29, 1861, making it the 34th state to join the United States. By that time, the violence in Kansas had largely subsided, but during the Civil War, on August 21, 1863, William Quantrill led several hundred of his supporters on a raid into Lawrence, destroying much of the city and killing nearly 200 people. He was roundly condemned by both the conventional Confederate military and the partisan rangers commissioned by the Missouri legislature. His application to that body for a commission was flatly rejected due to his pre-war criminal record. That is what this product is about. We could tell you that this flag was from the aforementioned battle, instead we do our best to research our history before putting the love and hard work it takes to make a Ragged Old Flag. Sale price for the 4th of July!
