On August 11, 1862, 150 years ago, the Confederates attacked the Jail, headquarters of the Federals and retreated three blocks west on the Square. This First Battle of Independence was re-enacted at today’s 1859 Jail and Museum on Main Street. Other events were held at the National Frontier Trails Museum.
