With a partnerDiscuss two inferences you can make

Devise a CQC with one of the inferencesExample: Despite the proclamation of 1763, American colonists were still settling west of the Appalachins. As a result crimes against native Americans continued to occur: “the murder of the eight Mississiagaes …..cruelty.” The consequence of the secretary relaying these details to his apparent British superiors was likely to bring more restrictions on the colonists as trade was likely affected by the conflicts between Indians and settlers.
