their intention to utterly annihilate the entire num- ber of Free-Soil settlements in Kansas during the coming autumn.
When she had gained all the information she could, she returned to Osawatomie, where she made known to the principal men what she had learned. Each town, acting under instruction of its acknowl- edged leader, appointed guards to watch day and night for any demonstration the Border Ruffians might make. Dickey volunteered to ...act as spy. Leaving Osawatomie, she readied Missouri, where, clad in man's apparel, she passed as a school teacher hailing from South Carolina*, having been sent West by Mr. Calhoun, showing Lillie's daguerrotype, with her name and residence engraved upon the case.
She had dyed her hair black and assumed the name of Dick Richards. Soon, by her easy manner, fluent address and her many accomplishments, she had charge of a school, made up of children of the first families of Westport. Although, ostensibly, a teacher, yet she closely observed all that was trans- piring around her, keeping a record of sayings and occurrences during the day, she sent, nightly, a let- ter to a friend in Osawatomie, through the mail to Harrisonville, where it would be taken by some neighbor who was there trading.
