article one: the new york tribune from december 5, 1859
on leaving the jail, john brown had on his face an expression of calmness and serenity characteristic of the patriot who is about to die with a living consciousness that he is laying his life down for the good of his fellow as he stepped out of the door a black woman, with her little child in her arms, stood near his way. the twain were of the despised race for whose emancipation and elevation to the dignity of children of god he was about to lay down his he stopped for a moment in his course, stooped over, and with the tenderness of one whose love is as broad as the brotherhood of man, kissed [the child] affectionately.

article two: the cincinnati enquirer from december 3, 1859
we rejoice that old brown has been hung. he was not only a murderer of innocent persons, but he attempted one of the greatest crimes against society—the stirring up of a servile and civil war. he has paid the penalty for his crimes, and we hope his fate may be a warning to all who might have felt inclined to imitate his aggressive conduct.

now it is your turn. synthesize the tribune and the enquirer articles mentioned in the "using sources" section of the lesson into one or two paragraphs. you may use the example given above, but your paragraph must be different. remember to follow the process hints mentioned earlier in this lesson.
