His subsequent execution made him a martyr for the abolitionist cause, galvanizing anti-slavery sentiment in the North while provoking fear and anger in the South. This event accelerated the movement toward the Civil War, as it revealed the extent of sectional conflict and the willingness of individuals to resort to violence for their beliefs.
