Folk legend?
In a travel map I picked up, sponsored by ENCO in 1960, it describes Daniel Webster on a level of folklore similar to Paul Bunyan or Pecos Bill. According to the map "When Daniel Webster spoke, some say, the stars flashed and the earth trembled. He had a brow like a mountain and black eyes that burned like live coals."

Other reference
There was also a reference to this story in an episode of Italic textFuturamaItalic text, another show by Italic textSimpsonsItalic text creator Matt Groening in which the main character, Flick, makes a deal with the devil for his soul. They attempt to time travel to retrieve Daniel Webster to help Flick get out of his contract, but inadvertently tagert the wrong Webster, and instead they retrieve the Webster African-American child star of 1980's TV fame.
