So far there had been no collision between the opposing forces.
Late in November, however, the opportunity was presented for a blow at Lawrence, the chief free- State settlement, by the rescue of a free-State prisoner from the hands of a pro-slavery sheriff.
Appealing first to Missouri for aid, then to the pro- slavery Governor of the Territory, the sheriff raised an army of some twelve hundred men, with which Lawrence was besieged. This constitutes the so-called "Wakarusa War," which came to a...n end December 7, 1855, with the loss of one life. The Missourians were obliged to leave the Territory; and the substance of victory remained with the men of Lawrence.
^ Rhodes, History of the United States, II, p. loi.
