" If I should get up before those legislative fel- lows," he inquired, " to read a proclamation, would n't some devil shoot at me ? " " Nobody," said Walker, " will lift a finger against you." The convention sent a committee to confer with Colonel Sumner. He was very anxious that the legislature should not meet at all, as he wished to escape the odium of coercive measures. That point the committee refused to yield. An under- standing, however, was reached that the legisla- ture should assemble
...and begin to organize, but quietly disperse at the command of the federal authorities.
The 4th of July found Topeka thronged with men, women, and children. Two free-state mili- tary companies were also in town. A nervous, wistful, depressed sentiment prevailed, as people at large were not in the secret of the cut-and- dried programme. The mass-convention, think- ing its mission not yet fully accomplished, fearing that at the last moment a panic might seize upon the legislature and prevent it from assembling, resumed its sessions in the morning and fell lus- tily to work.
