EDITORS COMMENTS
Andrew Horatio Reed: A Complex Figure in Kansas History (1807-1864) This image depicts Andrew Horatio Reed, a pivotal yet enigmatic figure in the history of Kansas. Born in 1807, Reed's political career began in earnest when he was appointed as the first Governor of Kansas Territory in 1854. However, his tenure was fraught with controversy, as allegations of incompetency and land speculation soon surfaced. Reed's inability to effectively manage the territory's affairs and his involvement in questionable land deals led to his removal from office in 1857. Facing the prospect of public scrutiny and potential legal action, Reed chose to flee in disguise. He donned a false beard and assumed the alias "John Brown, Jr." to evade capture. Despite his controversial past, Reed's political acumen and oratorical skills proved valuable in the tumultuous world of Kansas politics. He eventually emerged as a prominent spokesman for the Free State cause, advocating for the admission of Kansas as a free state and opposing the spread of slavery into the territory. Reed's transformation from disgraced governor to Free State champion highlights the complexities of the Kansas-Nebraska Act and the volatile political climate of the time. This photograph, a poignant reminder of Reed's intriguing story, invites us to explore the rich and often contentious history of Kansas and its early leaders.
