On February 13, 1819, Congressman James Tallmadge, Jr, of Stanford introduced an amendment to bring Missouri into the Union as a free state. Join us for the 200th anniversary commemoration of this historic moment in county and national history. What led Tallmadge to provoke a nationwide crisis? Why did pent-up feelings explode in 1819-1821\u2014and not during earlier arguments over slavery? How could a nation struggling with the politically implacable issue of slavery hold the “wolf\u201d by the ears?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
