The day Lincoln died slavery was legal in every part of America. Lincoln had no authority to abolish slavery. In 1857 the Dred Scott SCOTUS decision expanded slavery across America and abolished all civil rights and citizenship for blacks. It was the law when Lincoln died and the Civil War ended.
What was the war about? Federalism vs State Sovereignty (the US was founded upon the equal status of States and the Union.) If it wasn't spelled out in the Constitution the Federal Government had no jurisdiction. Federal Law was pretty much limited to Washington DC and the Territories.
Jefferson Davis said it best, We are the United STATES of America not the United STATE of America.
The 13th Amendment abolished slavery.
But by 1865 slavery was expensive and few slave owners missed it when it went away. One Florida woman said it best: THANK GOD! NOW I ONLY GOT TO FEED THE NIGGERS THAT WORK. The 13th Amendment tossed all the darkies off the dole and forced them to find jobs or sell pussy.
