Description: In 1820 Thomas Jefferson observed of sectionalism: “Like a firebell in the night it awakened and filled me with terror. I considered it at once the knell of the union.” The notes of alarm in Jefferson’s comment speak of the fear aroused by the recent crisis over slavery in his home state.
