Abstract
The Liberal Republican Movement is ordinarily described as having started, developed, and disappeared in 1872. However, contrary to this opinion, it really began in Missouri at a much earlier date, in fact, it can be traced back as far as the close of the Civil War. Then too, the movement is described as having ended with the failure of Mr. Greeley's candidacy for president, yet there are numerous accounts which show the influence of the Liberal Republicans as late as 1884.
