Description
Constitution Hall by Lynn Sprowl.
The origin of the Civil War can be traced to Lecompton and the events that occurred inside this building during the Kansas Territorial period of the 1850's. A Kansas constitution supporting slavery was written here in 1857 but was voted down at the national level. This building played a role in the long-running Bleeding Kansas crisis.
