When Stephen F. Austin returned to Texas after his time in prison, what message did he have for his fellow Texans?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

D. NONE of these answers are correct

Explanation:

Stephen F. Austin was jailed in Mexico because of actions that were deemed traitorous because of a letter he wrote to the government on behalf of the colonists at Texas.

Austin wrote to the Texans and asked them to shelve plans for revolution

He made this speech to the Texans when he came back from prison,

“The revolution in Mexico is drawing to a close. The object is to change the form of government, destroy the federal constitution of 1824, and establish a central or consolidated government. The states are to be converted into provinces. Whether the people of Texas ought or ought not to agree to this change, and relinquish all or part of their constitutional and vested rights under the constitution of 1824, is a question of the most vital importance; one that calls for the deliberate consideration of the people”[5]
