The meeting was held on February 23, 1843. A resolution was adopted condemning Julius Willard, Samuel Willard, Ebenezer Carter, Chauncey W. Carter and others for their part in the affair, and they promised in the future to protect the property of their acquaintances in the South. Pro-slavery activists planned to form an Anti-Negro Stealing Society and urge Missouri newspapers to print their resolutions so that slaveholders would know that there was an opposing force at work in Jacksonville. In the end, the Anti-Negro Stealing Society had little effect on the work being done by local abolitionists, and the Underground Railroad continued to operate in the city and in the surrounding area.
The loss of the University of Illinois seemed to take the fight out of the city. There is no record of Jacksonville making a concerted effort for Illinois State University or Western Illinois University, two schools that could have fit nicely in town. In fact, Jacksonville seemed to resign itself to being a county seat and a premier city of learning. The city seemed to turn its lack of success into a virtue and made it a stable and comfortable place to live, do business, and learn. Besides, there was no greater school of higher learning in the state at the time than Illinois College.
In those days, almost no one on the prairie had money. The settlers made their own clothing by tanning the hides of deer and cattle for shoes while women with spinning wheels and looms produced trousers, shirts and dresses. They grew their own food, or hunted it in the forests, and the small farms provided eggs, milk, and butter. In the general stores, the settlers could trade any surplus goods for whiskey, sugar, salt, tools, crockery, or coffee. But as idyllic as this all sounds, the frontier was not without its dangers.
