From A.J. Huntoon to My Dear Lizzie

On April 26, 1861, A.J. Huntoon writes a letter from Topeka to his wife Lizzie.

He says that rumors have circulated about a possible attack by the Osage tribe, and that Governor Robinson responded by warning the Osage to leave the white settlers alone. Huntoon also says he heard a rumor that Indians attacked Fort Riley. He does not believe the rumor, and yet “We are preparing for the worst.”
