Notes

Many notables and a couple of school of thoughts here circa 1850. These are inferences by econterms (talk). Favoring unity with the South, one group:

• Mr. Webster -- probably Daniel Webster
• Edward Everett
• Mr. Seward
• Mr. Winthrop

A more severe division of the country, including the term "secession", was favored by

• Mr. Garrison
• Mr. Wendell Phillips
• Mr. Edmund Quincy
• Theodore Parker

An intermediate party cofounded by the author's father Charles F Adams Sr included:

• John G. Palfrey
• Richard H. Dana
• Charles Sumner
• and maybe his friend William M Evarts too.
