Slavery would have probably been outlawed in the next 10 years had the South won. General Lee felt that slavery was an abomination unto God. He was, and would have continued to be, the hero and most powerful man in the South (NOT Davis). Had he delivered victory, he probably would have used his clout to eliminate it as soon as possible during the reconstruction.
