August Spies
August Vincent Theodore Spies (, ; 1855–1887) was an American upholsterer, radical labor activist, and newspaper editor. Spies is remembered as one of the anarchist leaders in Chicago who were found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder following a bomb attack on police in an event remembered as the Haymarket affair. Spies was one of four who were executed in the aftermath of this event.
== Background ==
August Spies was born on December 10, 1855 in a ruined castle converted into a government building on the mountain Landeckerberg in the Central German state of Hesse.〔August Spies, (''August Spies' Auto-Biography; His Speech in Court and General Notes.'' ) Chicago: Niña van Zandt, 1887; pg. 1.〕 His father was a government forestry official.〔
Spies later recalled that he had a pleasant and privileged childhood, one filled with recreation and study.〔Spies, ''August Spies' Auto-Biography,'' pg. 7.〕 He was educated by private tutors and trained for a career following in his father's footsteps as a government forester.〔Spies, ''August Spies' Auto-Biography,'' pp. 7-8.〕 His father died suddenly in 1871, however, ending the comfortable financial situation for his mother, and August determined to set out for a new life in America, a country in which he already had a number of financially successful relatives.〔Spies, ''August Spies' Auto-Biography,'' pg. 8.〕
