However, by 1835, Americans outnumbered Mexicans by ten to one. This was because "Texas fever" spread across the South, and after the 1830's, the province had gone from 100 settlers to 30,000 settlers.Many settlers had brought their slaves with them to Texas. Periodic attempts by Mexico to abolish slavery in Texas was a problem.Mexico had became alarmed at the large number of Americans in Texas and began to restrict settlement. Some land grants were canceled.Shooting occasionally broke out between Mexican troops and American cowboys.
