Why the growing animosity that was separating the North from the South during the election campaign of 1860 and after the election of Lincoln, he had seen with deep concern the looming threat of the destruction of the Union, the work of the Founding Fathers, which he loved with devotion.

He was afraid that after this election, the North would deny equal rights to the South treating the Southerners as a tolerated minority at the mercy of a intransigent majority, which the South would certainly not have accepted, but sought to avoid at all costs, even resorting to arms.
