Slaves were unpaid labourers who were forced to do the masters bidding. A generous master may not have worked them quite so hard as a cruel one might have. For outdoor work, I'd assume they'd have been allowed to quit for the night when the sun went down, or when there was insufficient light.

Slaves stopped working when slavery was officially abolished in the United States with the passage of the 13th Amendment in December 1865. However, some forms of coerced labor and exploitation persisted in different forms for many years afterward.
