Lane took the field on the 10th "with a smart little army of about fifteen hundred men" -- reached Westport, Missouri, four days later, where he reported -- "Yesterday I cleaned out Butler and Parkville with my cavalry." September 22d he sacked and burned Osceola, Missouri -- an enterprise in which large amounts of property and a score of inhabitants were sacrificed. He broke camp on the 27th, and in two days reached Kansas City. The brigade converted the Missouri border through which the march lay into a wilderness, and reached its destination heavily encumbered with plunder.

Among the spoils that fell to Lane personally there was a fine carriage, which he brought to Lawrence for the use of his household.
