Answer:

Texas Abolished all of its slaves for the Reconstruction if the Union

Step-by-step explanation:

When the war ended with Confederate General Robert E. Lee's surrender at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865, the official news did not reach Texas for weeks. They had arrived to occupy the state, and to order the emancipation of all slaves in Texas. Reconstruction had begun.
