Missouri Compromise

Hello boys,

Here are some helpful sites for you.

1.) Overview: http://www.history.com/topics/missouri-compromise

2.) Overview 2: https://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/ourdocs/Missouri.html

3.) Overview with map: https://www.britannica.com/event/Missouri-Compromise

4.) The "Triumvirate:" http://www.ushistory.org/us/30c.asp

Your job is to break down the perspective and arguments of a slave state that were best articulated by JOHN C. CALHOUN (South Carolina). Then, break down arguments of a free state best articulated by DANIEL WEBSTER (Massachusetts). Finally, really focus on the COMPROMISE that HENRY CLAY (Kentucky) brokered.

If that all makes sense, go ahead and begin working on your paper. I expect about 8-10 paragraphs in your ROUGH DRAFT. That rough Draft is due February 19th, the day we come back from mardi Gras break.

ESHGETIT!!!

MR. GIBSON
