The Fugitive Slave Act required citizens to assist in capturing and returning escaped slaves, even in free states. This law was condemned by abolitionists and heightened tensions between pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions, contributing to the lead-up to the American Civil War.
As abolitionists refused to obey stricter laws concerning runaway slaves, the number of runaway slaves seeking freedom began to increase. Abolitionists helped fugitive slaves escape to free states or Canada through the Underground Railroad, a network of safe houses and secret routes. This resistance to the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 highlighted the divide between anti-slavery activists and pro-slavery supporters in the lead-up to the Civil War.

Southerners reacted negatively to abolitionists because they saw them as a threat to their economic and social way of life, which depended heavily on slavery.

Meanwhile their objectives were to ban any new slave-states in the Western territories. This would have meant the South being increasingly out-voted in Congress, which would pass laws hostile to Southern interests. It was this quarrel that led to the Civil War. And it was the war - not Abolitionist debate - that led to the end of slavery.
