Best Answer

Before the revolution Stephen F. Austin was granted a huge piece land by the Mexico in order to attract and settle new colonists from the United States.

Right before the revolution started he went to Mexico City to present the Texans' grievances and seek concessions from the central government. He succeeded in having the ban against American Immigration lifted, but he got only vague promises about tariff relief and failed to agreement to the separation of Texas from Coahuila. As he was about to return to Texas he was arrested and imprisoned for writing a letter recommending that Texans set up a state government without Mexico City's consent.
