Brown was captured.

All but two or three of his men were killed or captured,
-
and all those captured will be hung.

One of his sons, Owen Brown, did manage to escape.
-
What ensued at Harpers Ferry for 24 hours

was an absolute pitched battle between the townspeople,

local militias, and Brown's men,
-
and many townspeople were killed.
-
Owen Brown would escape and eventually move
-
as far, far away as he possibly could,
-
and live on a little desert farm up above Pasadena, california,
-
halfway up the San Gabriel Mountains,
