Answer:

Federal armory; slave revolt

Step-by-step explanation:

John Brown was an evangelical Christian who, in 1859, led a raid against a Federal armory with the intent of beginning a slave revolt.

He was against slavery and wanted slavery to be abolished. He attacked the federal armory in Harper’s ferry. He was believed to have plans to arm the slaves so they can fight for their freedom. This made the people afraid and condemned his act as a majority were in support of slavery in the South.
