Why were Texans from the western and northern regions of the state against secession? They had an economy that worked independently from enslaved labor.

They supported Edward Clark.

They refused to support Governor Sam Houston.

They had an economy heavily based on trade with other countries.

Houston rejected the actions of the Texas Secession Convention, believing it had overstepped its authority in becoming a member state of the newly formed Confederacy. He refused to take an oath of allegiance to the Confederacy and was deposed from office.
