TESTIMONY FROM OUR HOMES!
Undeniable Proof!
Evidence from a native of Union County
RESOLUTION
ROPOSING .mendments to the Conslitu-
The outrages of the Slave Tower in Kansa3 are so horrible, that at first
men can hardly believe they can happen in our day and nation. Pome
do not yet fully credit tho thousands of letters which testify the amazing
fact that Border Ruffians, aided ly the Governments' Ofl'u ers. have been for
siontha robbing and murdprinir American Freemen in order to force Slavery
into Kansas. Tlir nlso look with incredulity unon the 1200 pajres of evi
dence taken by the CongTessionel Committee, comprising the testimony of
200 men under oath (many of them .Missouri invaders themselves,; sunsian
tiating all the charges m.ide against the Administration iu its unjust and
cruel war upon the people of Kansas, once solemnly dedicated to Freedom
"for ever." But we have now evidence from one of OUR OWN citizens
until recently a resident of IJuflnloe Valley of good character, and who in
the followinsr private letter to his own fuinilv. would not deceive. Simon
Kitteb i3Sou of the late Jacob Rittek, and a grandson of Andrew Wolk
meu well known as amoiitr our I'cst. sTaunehest Democratic families, (.Mr,
Hitter we arc told being of ihe Rnadiiii; A freuiidsehaft.') This is not
the first letter received from him : his handwriting is known and reeogni
red ; and the letter came lat week tlirou;rh our Post Office with the Law
rence pot-inark so that there is no doubt of its irciimiicuess. feiTMMos
Hitter's word will be taken by all who know hiiu. The following is his
Letter, (omitting only a fev purely private details,) the original of which
can be seen at sir. w olios Louse :
Lawrence. K.T., September 8, 1856.
Pear Grandfather : As War is the only
Subject discussed here now, I thought I would (rive vou some of the partic
nlars. Every tiiixg is ix a state of war. Every coy that can shoulder
a musket, is out in the campaign. There have been three or four battles
fought a good many killed aud wounded, and the town of Ossawatomic
burned, by the ord e r Ruffians. I have not been engaged in any of the
fights yet. I have been driving stagf between here and Leavenworth all
summer. On the 21th of last month, I was taken prisoner with six passen
gers, by 300 Ruffians, and kept eleven davs took my stage, horses and all
my money left me without a cent. We were taken within eight miles of
Leavenworth Citv we were taken in Salt Creek Valley that night here
they were going to HaXG us all. Had it not been for some iu camp that
were acquainted with me, they would hung every one of us ; but they
begged for my sake not to hang ns ; that night we laid out on the open
prairie, with loaded muskets and bayonets pointed towards ns. The next
day we took up our line of march towards Leeompton ; we was three days
crossing over, threatened to be shot all the way. They stole all the
horses thev could find, and SHOT ONE OF THE PRISONERS. While
I wa gone, Sutherland and several otl.ers started in search of me ; they
heard I was shot. While thev were hunting for me, they were taken and
brought to Lecompton. On the eletemh dav, GOO of the Free State men
from Lawrence came with two cannon and Sharp's rifles and demanded us
they were afraid, and gave us up without firing a gun, but they kept all
the money and teams. There is not a day pases but what there is three
or four men killed. I believe in the course of another month there won't
be a house left in the Territory. We are nearly out of provisions and
mosey. I am married an J she wants to get away from here. The only
way for me to get away is for some of you to send me a draft of fifty or a
hundred dollars to take me and my things away. They say 1 have cot
to come into bervice, OR LEAVE THE TERRITORY. We expect oue
of the bloodiest fights here that ever was fought. You need not thiuk that
I am a coward, and going to run away from the battle ground ; I am no
coward, and were it xot for one pear to mi:. I wori.n sheo my blood ox
those beautifpl Prairies before I would leave, for I think WE ARK
FIGHTING FOR A GOOD CAUSE. If you are going to do something
for me, do it immediately ; if not, we have to pitch iu aud do the best we
can. I HOPE ALL MY FRIENDS WILL GO FOR FREMONT AND FREEDOM.
Imustcometoaclo.se. I received Andrew's letter. The Ri"Ffiaxs say
they will HANG ME, if they get me again, FOR BEING A FREE
STATE MAN. No more. Direct to .
Mr. Andrew Wolf, Lewisburg, Union Co., Tn.
SIMON HITTER.
!WFrank and truthful, the above establishes the fact that War rages,
and most horrid offences are perpetrated unchecked that alarm and terror
pervade all ranks and that neutrality is not tolerated : they must side
with the Border Humans, or be expatriated, or be hung!
With all his strong Democratic preindices and feelings, Mr. Ritter be
lieves as all the Free State men in Kansas believe that the only hope of
rrecdom m Kansas is iu the success of r Kh.uO.N I, who will turn out all
the Officers who are now trying to enforce the unconstitutional and cruel
decrees of the Border Ruffian Legislature. Only by a complete change of
.Administration can those bloody n.nd wicked sham Laws be annulled, and
the robbers and murderers punched. The new Governor. Geary, declares
those laws must be enforced until they are repealed, which will never be
done by the party that enacted them for the purpose of establishing Slave
ry ! Well may honest Suiox Hitter say, '1 hope all my friends will go
for Fremont and Freedom !" This seem to be the only way to save
Kansas, and right the Wrongs, except by a sanguinary Revolution. Then
let the friends of Liberty vote for FREMONT, and all will be well I

ie Letter from Kansas of SIMON KITTKR to his Grand
father, ANDREW WOLFti, has brought out a statement in the
"Union Argus'' of this week, designed to counteract its influence,
and which is published m such a way as mi.ht convey an errone
ous impression. Mr. Wolfe desiivs this statement published, in
justice to himelf and his gri.r.drii, n. ul m ii K g my le cciifides.
Mr. Wolfe and his sons, we feel confident, now intend "positively"
to vote for jprcmont K ifrrraom for Ramao.
E-This is to certify, that I never gave
H. W. Crotzcr a certificate, certifying that I was not a Fremont
man ; but, as near as I can recollect the certificate was as follows,
viz: "I never said positively that I would vote, or go for Fremont."
The reasons for, and the circumst mce undi r which I gave that
certificate to H. . Crotzer was ts follows; II. W. Crotzer came
to me and stated that he had got into ;i personal difficulty as to my
"politics," and that he wanted a certificate for his own personal
defence; and after writing three certificates, I signed the one
above referred to. If he would have intimated to me that he in
tended to publish the certificate for the purpose of making politi
cal capital, I should have never given it. And now, inasmuch as
advantage has been taken, and my purpose and design misrepre
eutedf I POSITIVELY DECLAKK, Til AT IF I VOTE AT
ALL FOR PRESIDENT, I WILL VOTE FOR J. C. FRE
