Henry Clay Henry Clay (1777-1852), a slave holder (Sterling 190), cannot be counted among the abolitionists; his efforts, rather, involved the formation of compromises intended, at least in part, to satisfy both the North and the South. The abolitionists, however, were thoroughly dissatisfied. Clay was born in Virginia, practiced law in Kentucky, was a U.S. senator from 1806-07 and 1810-11, a member of the House of Representatives from 1811-25, and speaker of the House during most of the same period. His support of the Missouri Compromise in 1820 earned him the name of Great Pacificator . From 1825-1829 he was Secretary of State and again served in the senate from 1831-42 and 1849-52. In 1831 and 1844 he was the Whig candidate for the presidency but was defeated. He is best known for his Compromise of 1850, by which he hoped to prevent civil war forever ( Webster's New Biographical Dictionary 215). His talent for compromise was his contribution to emancipation, if it can be called such (Merrill III 182). When William Lloyd Garrison was imprisoned, Clay would have paid the fine for his release, but Garrison later said Clay's willingness to do so was no reason for him (Garrison) to abstain from rebuking his later attempts to destroy the abolitionist movement (Merrill V 174).

Lucretia Hart was born in Hagerstown, Maryland, on March 18, 1781 and was the youngest daughter of Colonel Thomas and Susanna Gray Hart. She married Henry Clay, (1777-1852) who had a long political career and was U.S. Diplomat, U.S. Congressman, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Secretary of State, U.S. Senator and Presidential Candidate. More about the Harts and related families In Lucretia's great granddaughter's journal, it is noted, "Henry Clay, a young lawyer, came to Lexington in 1797. Although penniless and almost friendless in the midst of a distiguised Bar, he was full of courage and of hope. Very soon he was a constant and welcome visitor at the hospitable home of Colonel Hart where two charming unmarried daughters and the first piano brought to Lexington, made an attractive social center; and when young people gathered at her home, Lucretia played for them to dance. Two time-stained piedes of music, The Lexington Grand Waltz and The Ashland Quadrilles , dedicated to Mrs. Henry Clay by Professor Wilhelm Iucho, are tributes to her musical ability." (Simpson

"I have heard something said about allegiance to the South. I know no South, no North, no East, no West, to which I owe any allegiance," he once said. A lawyer and orator, the charismatic leader had a distinguished career of over 40 years as a Kentucky legislator, congressman, speaker of the House, secretary of state, and senator. A nemesis to Andrew Jackson , Clay was a major creator of the political landscape of his time. "Government is a trust, and the officers of the government are trustees," Clay explained. "Both the trust and the trustees are created for the benefit of the people." Called the "Great Compromiser" because of his ability to negotiate compromises over the issue of slavery, Clay was unable to realize his life-long ambition to become President of the United States. He ran three times
